Details

What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with 3.0L gasoline engines. The wire harness may not be secured properly, possibly contacting the air conditioning (a/c) compressor pulley, and resulting in damage to electrical wires, or the a/c compressor drive belt.

Why it matters: Damaged electrical wires may short-circuit, increasing the risk of a fire.

The fix: Dealers will inspect the harness and a/c compressor belt for damage, replacing them as necessary, and install a tie strap to secure the wire harness, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on July 30, 2021.
