Details
What's wrong: On certain passenger vehicles, the turbo charger coolant hose was incorrectly manufactured, and may allow coolant leakage.
Why it matters: If a leak occurs, during vehicle operation when the manifold is hot, coolant may ignite and cause a vehicle fire.
The fix: Dealers will replace the turbo charger coolant hose free of charge. The recall began on August 15, 2005.
