Details

What's wrong: On these vehicles, the exhaust system is close to a vehicle storage compartment. Heat can build up in this area.

Why it matters: Heat build up could result in a fire, property damage, personal injury or death.

The fix: Tmc will notify owners, and dealers will install a heat shield to protect the storage compartment from the heat generated by the exhaust. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on October 3, 2011.
