Recall 2009037

The issue

On certain vehicles, an unused electrical connector may become corroded and eventually short circuit, affecting operation of the compass display, rear heater/AC blower, courtesy lamps and integral flashlight. Should the circuit fuse not blow, the connector could overheat and cause a vehicle fire. Correction: Dealers will seal the power circuit at the unused connector and replace the fuse if necessary.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, un raccord électrique inutilisé pourrait se corroder et finir par produire un court-circuit, ce qui entraverait le fonctionnement de l'affichage de la boussole, du ventilateur du climatiseur/de la chaufferette arrière, des lampes d'accueil et de la lampe de poche intégrale. Si le fusible du circuit ne grillait pas, le raccord pourrait surchauffer et causer un incendie. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront sceller le circuit d'alimentation au niveau du raccord inutilisé et remplacer le fusible le cas échéant.
