Details

What's wrong: Some of these vehicles were built without a heater hose clip which could allow the hose to sag and contact the oxygen sensor resulting in a coolant leak.

Why it matters: If a coolant leak were to occur, and leaking coolant contacted the hot exhaust manifold, an engine compartment fire could result.

The fix: Dealers will install a heater hose clip.
