The issue

On certain vehicles equipped with PACCAR MX-13 engines and Leece Neville alternators, the alternator charge cable may chafe against an air conditioning discharge line. This chafing could lead to damage of the alternator cable's insulation and could lead to an electrical short, increasing the risk of fire, which could result in injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will rotate the alternator cable end 180 degrees to provide necessary clearance and reattach the cable to the alternator.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules munis de moteurs PACCAR MX-13 et d'alternateurs Leece Neville, le câble de charge de l'alternateur pourrait s'user par frottement contre une conduite d'évacuation de climatisation. Ce frottement pourrait endommager la gaine de câble de l'alternateur et causer un court-circuit, ce qui augmenterait les risques de déclenchement d'un feu pouvant entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Correction : Les concessionnaires devront faire tourner l'extrémité du câble de l'alternateur de 180 degrés, afin de laisser un jeu suffisant, puis fixer de nouveau le câble à l'alternateur.
