Details

What's wrong: The transmission fluid rubber tube connecting the transmission to the transmission oil cooler located in the radiator can become disconnected from the transmission, resulting in discharge of transmission fluid.

Why it matters: The discharged fluid could contact the exhaust manifoldor the exhaust pipe, resulting in a fire.

The fix: Dealers will install a revised line and transmission outlet tube.
