Details

What's wrong: An electrical short can occur if the battery cables were not tucked into the compartment in a manner that does not allow the cables to be pinched between the battery slide tray and the compartment door.

Why it matters: If this condition is not addressed, it may result in a fire, injury or death.

The fix: Dealers will relocate the battery cables to the rear battery and reposition a clamp to prevent pinching. The recall began on May 26, 2008.
