Details

What's wrong: The canister purge evaporative emissions harness on these vehicles was misrouted.

Why it matters: The harness could interfere with the cruise control and throttle linkage preventing return to a closed throttle.

The fix: Dealers will inspect the vehicle for proper routing of the harness, correct as necessary, and install a plastic tie strap to the harness.
