On certain vehicles, a short circuit in the generator could cause excessive current flow in the generator wiring harness resulting in overheating and a possible engine compartment fire. Correction: Generator wiring harness will be replaced with one that will open, as a fuse would under these conditions, to eliminate the potential for an underhood fire.
On certain vehicles equipped with automatic transmission, the gear selector may indicate that the vehicle is in PARK or NEUTRAL, even though it could be in REVERSE or DRIVE. If this happens, the vehicle could start in REVERSE or DRIVE, or might move unexpectedly. Correction: Valve body assembly will be replaced. Note: all vehicles were repaired prior to final delivery.
