Why it matters: This could potentially melt the battery cable and cause a back feed through the chassis 12v system which could result in injury or loss.
The fix: Dealers will inspect the battery cable to see if the cable is properly mounted inside of the chassis frame rail. If necessary, the battery cable will be mounted securely in existing holes in frame rail free of charge. The recall began on March 18, 2005.
