ROUTING OF BATTERY MAIN FEED WIRING MAY ALLOW IT TO CONTACT THE AIR CLEANER BRACKET AND CONTNUED CONTACT MAY LEAD TO AN ELECTRICAL SHORT CIRCUIT. Remedy: THE MAIN FEED ON ALL INVOLVED VEHICLES WILL BE REROUTED AND SECURED WITH TIE STRAPS AWAY FROM THE AIR CLEANER BRACKET.
REAR BRAKE TUBE ROUTING IS CONTACTED BY FUEL TANK HEAT SHIELD WHEN SUSPENSION IS IN FULL JOUNCE POSITION. THIS DAMAGES THE BRAKE FLUID TUBE, CAUSING A LEAK. Remedy: MODIFY HEAT SHIELD TO ELIMINATE POTENTIAL FOR SHIELD CONTACTING BRAKE TUBE.
THE END CAP CONNECTING THE HEAT EXCHANGER'S CORE TO THE ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM COULD RUPTURE AND ALLOW HOT COOLANT TO ESCAPE INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. Remedy: A COOLANT TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED HEATER CORE FLUID BYPASS VALVE WILL BE INSTALLED.
THE ABS HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT CAN EXPERIENCE EXCESSIVE BRAKE ACTUATOR PISTON SEAL WEAR CAUSING PUMP-MOTOR DETERIORATION. Remedy: DEALERS WILL TEST THE VEHICLE'S ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM AND REPAIR THE VEHICLES IF NECESSARY. ALSO THE WARRANTY ON ALL ABS COMPONENTS WILL BE EXTENDED TO 10 YEARS OR 100,000 MILES (EXCEPT FOR THE BRAKE ACTUATOR PISTON ASSEMBLY AND THE PUMP-MOTOR ASSEMBLY WHICH WILL HAVE A LIFETIME COVERAGE). OWNERS WILL ALSO BE REIMBURSED FOR PREVIOUS ABS COMPONENT REPAIR COSTS.
THE AUTOMATIC SHOULDER BELT SYSTEMS CAN MALFUNCTION AND BECOME INOPERATIVE. Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE SYSTEM TRACK AND DRIVE ASSEMBLY ON AUTOMATIC SHOULDER BELT SYSTEMS WHICH ARE CURRENTLY INOPERATIVE AND THOSE SYSTEMS WHEN THEY BECOME INOPERATIVE IN THE FUTURE.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSENGER AND MULTI-PURPOSE VEHICLES ORIGINALLY SOLD OR CURRENTLY REGISTERED IN THE STATES OF CONNECTICUT, ILLINOIS, INDIANA, MAINE, MARYLAND, MASSACHUSETTS, MICHIGAN, NEW HAMPSHIRE, NEW JERSEY, NEW YORK, OHIO, PENNSYLVANIA, RHODE ISLAND, VERMONT, OR WISCONSIN, AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. THE FRONT DISC BRAKE ROTORS CAN EXPERIENCE SEVERE CORROSION IF OPERATED FOR AN EXTENSIVE PERIOD IN THE "SALT BELT." IF THE ROTORS ARE NOT REPLACED, THE CORROSION CAN EVENTUALLY COMPROMISE THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE STAMPED STEEL CENTER HUB SECTION OF THE ROTOR. Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THESE ROTORS WITH ROTORS THAT ARE COATED WITH A CORROSION PROTECTION.
THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM HIGH PRESSURE HOSE MAY LEAK OR DETACH AT ITS CRIMPED END FITTING RESULTING IN THE DISCHARGE OF HYDRAULIC FLUID. Remedy: REPLACE THE ABS HIGH PRESSURE HOSE WITH A HOSE OF DIFFERENT DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION.

NOTE: VEHICLES ORIGINALLY RETAILED IN ONTARIO, QUEBEC AND THE MARITIME PROVINCES. THE COMPOSITE FRONT DISC BRAKE ROTORS ON THESE VEHICLES MAY FAIL DUE TO CORROSION. THE CAST IRON WEAR SURFACE MAY SEPARATE FROM THE HUB REDUCING THE BRAKING EFFECTIVENESS OF THE VEHICLE. CORRECTION: FRONT COMPOSITE ROTORS WILL BE REPLACED WITH ONES HAVING A REVISED CORROSION PROTECTION COATING.
Note: Vehicles equipped with Bendix-10 Antilock Brake System (ABS) Vehicles with ABS brakes may experience premature actuator piston seal wear in the ABS hydraulic control unit and/or actuator pump motor deterioration. If this occurs, the ABS function may be lost and reduced power assist may be experienced during vehicle braking. Correction: Vehicles with ABS malfunction will be repaired as necessary. Warranty on all ABS components will be extended to 10 years or 160,000 km (except for the brake actuator piston assembly and the pump-motor assembly which will have lifetime coverage).
NOTE: VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH 3.0 LITRE ENGINES. THESE VEHICLES MAY NOT COMPLY WITH C.M.V.S.S 1103 - EXHAUST EMISSIONS. CATALYSTS AND OXYGEN SENSORS MAY BE DEFECTIVE. CORRECTION: CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND OXYGEN SENSOR WILL BE REPLACED.
THE HEATER CORE END CAP MAY FAIL (SPLIT/TEAR) ALLOWING THE DISCHARGE OF COOLING SYSTEM STEAM INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT WHICH MAY CAUSE REDUCED DRIVER VISIBILITY. CORRECTION: A COOLANT TEMPERATURE-CONTROLLED FLUID BYPASS VALVE WILL BE INSTALLED ON AFFECTED VEHICLES. THIS VALVE WILL ISOLATE THE HEATER CORE DURING PERIODS OF HIGH COOLANT TEMPERATURE.

NOTE: JEEP VEHICLES WITH 4.0 LITRE ENGINES, RENAULT VEHICLES WITH 2.0 LITRE ENGINES AND EAGLE PREMIER VEHICLES WITH 2.5 AND 3 LITRE ENGINES. THESE VEHICLES DO NOT COMPLY WITH C.M.V.S.S. 1103 - EXHAUST EMISSIONS. FAULTY OXYGEN SENSOR COULD LEAD TO POOR FUEL/AIR CONTROL AND REDUCED CATALYST EFFICIENCY WHICH MAY INCREASE TAILPIPE EMISSIONS. CORRECTION: OXYGEN SENSOR WILL BE REPLACED WITH ONE OF AN IMPROVED DESIGN.
On certain vehicles equipped with an anti-lock brake system (ABS), the high pressure hose may leak or detach due to inadequate crimping of the hose-to-end fittings. This condition could result in loss of brake power assist and a possible increase in stopping distances. Correction:(526) ABS high pressure hose will be replaced with a hose of different design and construction. (527) four hundred and twenty six of the identified mini vans will also have the ABS pump casting inspected for porosity. Leaking pumps, if found, will be replaced.
THE FUEL TANK HEAT SHIELD MAY CONTACT THE REAR BRAKE TUBE WHEN THE SUSPENSION IS IN THE FULL JOUNCE POSITION. CONTINUED CONTACT COULD CAUSE THE BRAKE TUBE TO WEAR THROUGH CAUSING LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID AND A PARTIAL BRAKE SYSTEM LOSS WHICH WOULD RESULT IN INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCES. CORRECTION: HEAT SHIELD WILL BE MODIFIED TO ELIMINATE POTENTIAL FOR HEAT SHIELD TO REAR BRAKE TUBE CONTACT. ALL BRAKE TUBES DAMAGED DUE TO CONTACT WITH THE HEAT SHIELD WILL BE REPLACED.
IMPROPERLY ROUTED BATTERY MAIN FEED WIRING COULD CONTACT THE AIR CLEANER BRACKET AND EVENTUALLY DAMAGE THE WIRING INSULATOR. THIS MIGHT RESULT IN AN ELECTRICAL SHORT WHICH COULD IGNITE THE WIRING INSULATION AND CAUSE AN UNDERHOOD FIRE. CORRECTION: MAIN FEED WIRING WILL BE RELOCATED AND SECURED WITH TIE STRAPS TO ENSURE ROUTING AWAY FROM THE AIR CLEANER BRACKET.
