Recall 1979107

The issue

VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH 300 OR 460 C.I.D. ENGINES AND REAR FLOOR MATS SOME OF THE SUBJECT VEHICLES WERE PRODUCED WITHOUT SOME SPECIFIED BODY-MOUNTED HEAT SHIELDS. IF SUCH A VEHICLE IS ALLOWED TO IDLE FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD (PARTICULARLY WITH A FOULED SPARK PLUG OR OTHER ENGINE CONDITION WHICH INCREASES EXHAUST TEMPERATURES) THE ABSENCE OF THESE HEAT SHIELDS COULD RESULT IN HIGH REAR FLOOR PAN TEMPERATURES THAT COULD CHAR THE REAR FLOOR COVERING RESULTING IN INTERIOR SMOKE DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY.
