Recall 1995053

The issue

On certain vehicles, the front passenger metal footrest could, over time, abrade through the wiring harness under the footrest. If this happens, the wiring harness can short-circuit and cause overheating of the wires, engine stalling, or an airbag to inadvertently deploy. Correction: Dealers will install additional wiring harness cable fastener ties and edge protective covering for sharp edges of the metal footrest.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, le repose-pied métallique avant du passager pourrait, à la longue, user par frottement le faisceau de câbles qui court juste en-dessous. Si cela se produit, le faisceau peut court-circuiter et faire, au hasard, surchauffer les câbles, caler le moteur ou déployer le sac gonflable. Correction: Les concessionnaires devront installer des attaches supplémentaires sur le faisceau de câbles et mettre un écran protecteur sur toutes les arêtes vives du repose-pied.
