Details

What's wrong: Please see the recall report for the complete list of models. In the event the starter motor fails, repeated attempts to start the vehicle can cause the starter motor to overheat from an electrical overload.

Why it matters: A starter motor that overheats can ignite nearby combustible material in the engine compartment, increasing the risk of a fire.

The fix: Dealers will update the vehicle software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 27, 2024.
