Summary
On certain vehicles, a wiring harness that is not compatible with the vehicle circuit polarity may have been inadvertently installed during servicing for recall 2005028 or 2007258. As a result, the fuse is located in the output circuit rather than in the input power feed circuit, and will not offer the intended protection in the event of an electrical short to ground. This could result in a vehicle fire, causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will install an updated wiring harness.
Summary
On certain vehicles, the speed control deactivation switch may overheat, smoke, or burn, potentially resulting in an underhood fire. The failure mode appears to be different than that of Recall 2005028 (05S28). This time, the concern is with long term durability performance issues causing the switch to fail. Correction: Initially as an interim repair, owners will be instructed to return their vehicles to their dealers to have the speed control deactivation switch disconnected. As soon as replacement parts are available, owners will be instructed to return to the dealers for installation of a fused wiring harness designed to eliminate the potential risk of fire.
Summary
THE REAR OUTBOARD SEAT BELT D-RINGS ARE RIVETED TO METAL STRAPS WHICH ARE BOLTED THE THE C-PILLAR STRUCTURE. SOME OF THESE RIVETS WERE NOT PROPERLY HEAT TREATED AND MAY FRACTURE UNDER LOAD AND FAIL TO HOLD THE D-RINGS TO THE STRAPS. IF THE RIVETS WERE TO SEPARATE DURING A CRASH, THERE WOULD BE ADDITIONAL SLACK IN THE BELT SYSTEM AND THE POTENTIAL FOR MORE OCCUPANT MOVEMENT WHILE BEING RESTRAINED BE THE BELTS. CORRECTION: BOTH REAR OUTBOARD RESTRAINTS WILL BE INSPECTED AND, IF REQUIRED, A REINFORCEMENT PLATE WILL BE INSTALLED ON THE AFFECTED SEAT BELT ASSEMBLY.
Summary
THE NON-CYCLING POWER WINDOW CIRCUIT BREAKER AND THE CYCLING LOW-BEAM CIRCUIT BREAKER MAY BE INTERCHANGED AT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FUSE PANEL. IN THE EVENT OF A SHORT OR OVERLOAD IN THE HEADLAMP CIRCUIT, BOTH HEADLAMPS COULD GO OUT WITHOUT WARNING, RATHER THAN FLASHING AS INTENDED WITH THE CYCLING CIRCUIT BREAKER. THIS COULD LEAD TO REDUCED NIGHTTIME DRIVER VISIBILITY, WHICH COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT. CORRECTION: CIRCUIT BREAKERS WILL BE REMOVED AND REINSTALLED IN THE CORRECT LOCATIONS.
Summary
THE FUEL TANK MAY LEAK AT THE SEAL BETWEEN THE FUEL FILLER PIPE AND THE FUEL TANK. FUEL LEAKAGE, IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE COULD POTENTIALLY RESULT IN A FIRE. CORRECTION: A FUEL FILLER PIPE TO FUEL TANK SEAL, WHICH IS MADE FROM DIFFERENT MATERIAL, WILL BE INSTALLED ON AFFECTED VEHICLES.
Summary
THE PASSENGER SIDE SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (AIR BAG) MAY HAVE A CRACKED INFLATOR BODY. IF THE VEHICLE IS INVOLVED IN A DEPLOYMENT LEVEL CRASH, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG MAY NOT INFLATE PROPERLY WHICH COULD RESULT IN REDUCED OCCUPANT PROTECTION. IN ADDITION, THE IGNITER PLUG COULD SEPARATE FROM THE INFLATOR, WHICH COULD RESULT IN THE RELEASE OF HOT GASES AND COULD IGNITE FLAMMABLE MATERIAL OR POTENTIALLY CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY. CORRECTION: VEHICLES WILL BE INSPECTED AND A NEW PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG MODULE WILL BE INSTALLED IF NECESSARY.
