THE INSULATION OF THE POSITIVE BATTERY CABLE MAY RUB AGAINST THE ENGINE WIRING HARNESS BRACKET OR GROUND STUD.

SUDDEN LOSS OF HEADLIGHTS UNDER SEVERE WEATHER OR NIGHT DRIVING CONDITIONS COULD RESULT IN VEHICLE CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING.

Description (français)

Le câble de la borne positive de l'accumulateur peut frotter contre la bride de retenue du faisceau de câblage du moteur ou contre le boulon de mise à la masse. Si l'isolant du câble s'use, cela peut entraîner la décharge de l'accumulateur et l'extinction des phares. En cas de conduite par mauvais temps ou de nuit, l'extinction brusque des phares peut provoquer un accident.
