THE FUEL FILLER AND TANK VENTILATION HOSES MAY DEVELOP CRACKS UNDER THE SECURING HOSE CLAMPS, RESULTING IN FUEL LEAKAGE. Remedy: THE FUEL FILLER AND FUEL VENTILATION HOSES WILL BE REPLACED WITH NEW HOSES. THE FIVE SECURING HOSE CLAMPS WILL BE REPLACED BY A NEW TYPE WITH A SHIELD THAT PREVENTS DAMAGE TO THE HOSE WHEN TIGHTENED.
MOISTURE CAN FOLLOW THE ELECTRICAL HARNESS AND ENTER THE PRESSURE SWITCH CONNECTOR CAUSING CORROSION AND MALFUNCTION OF THE SWITCH. Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS TO THE ABS PRESSURE SWITCH TERMINALS FOR CORROSION AND INSTALL A SHRINK HOSE TO THE WIRING HARNESS TO AVOID MOISTURE ENTERING THE CONNECTION. PRESSURE SWITCHES WITH CORRODED CONNECTORS WILL BE REPLACED.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSENGER VEHICLES. MOISTURE CAN ENTER THE AIR BAG INFLATABLE RESTRAINT ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE (ECM) AND CAUSE CORROSION ON PORTIONS OF THE ECM PRINTER CIRCUIT BOARDS. Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE EXTERIOR OF THE ECM. IF THERE IS NO INDICATION OF MOISTURE, A COVER WILL BE INSTALLED OVER THE ECM. IF THERE IS INDICATION OF MOISTURE, THE DEALER WILL REPLACE THE ECM AND INSTALL A COVER OVER THE NEW ECM.
DURING LOW ENERGY FRONTAL IMPACT COLLISIONS, THE FRONT CROSSMEMBER CAN CONTACT THE METAL TUBING PORTION OF THE COOLER HOSE ASSEMBLY; AND/OR THE HOSE ASSEMBLY CAN BREAK AND LEAK OIL ONTO THE HOT EXHAUST MANIFOLD OR THE TURBOCHARGER. Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSTALL A PROTECTIVE COVER WHICH WILL PROTECT THE COOLER AND HOSES FROM OTHER STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS IN LOW ENERGY FRONT IMPACTS.

On certain vehicles, moisture could enter the air bag electronic control module and cause corrosion on portions of the ECM printer circuit boards. This condition can, in extreme cases, create open connections in circuits controlling air bag deployment with the possibility of inadvertent air bag and/or pretensioner deployment. Correction: Dealers will inspect the electronic control module and install a protective cover over the module to prevent moisture from entering.
ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH "MkII" ABS BRAKING SYSTEM, MOISTURE MAY FOLLOW THE WIRING TO THE PRESSURE WARNING SWITCH ON THE ABS UNIT WHICH CAN CAUSE CORROSION TO BUILD UP ON THE CONNECTION TERMINAL. A MALFUNCTION COULD CAUSE A LOSS OF POWER ASSISTANCE. CORRECTION: IF THE SWITCH CONNECTION PINS ARE CORRODED, THE SWITCH WILL BE REPLACED. ON ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES, THE SWITCH CONNECTION WILL BE SPRAYED WITH A COATING AND SHRINK SLEEVE WILL BE APPLIED TO SEAL THE CONNECTION FROM WATER.
A SLIGHTLY DOWNWARD LOW ENERGY IMPACT COULD RESULT IN BREAKAGE OF THE ENGINE OIL COOLER HOSE AND/OR HOUSING. LEAKING OIL FROM THE OIL COOLER CAN BE IGNITED BY A HOT EXHAUST MANIFOLD OR TURBOCHARGER RESULTING IN AN ENGINE COMPARTMENT FIRE. CORRECTION: A PROTECTIVE COVER WILL BE INSTALLED OVER THE OIL COOLER.
CRACKS CAN DEVELOP IN THE TWO (2) RUBBER HOSES THAT CONNECT THE FUEL TANK WITH THE PLASTIC PIPES WHICH GO TO THE FUEL FILLER HOUSING. THIS COULD RESULT IN FUEL LEAKAGE AND, IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE, A FIRE COULD OCCUR. CORRECTION: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE HOSES AND REPLACE THE CLAMPS WITH NEW STYLE CLAMPS THAT HAVE A PROTECTIVE INNER LAYER.
