CERTAIN VEHICLES WERE EQUIPPED WITH FRONT BRAKE HOSE ASSEMBLIES THAT WERE INCORRECTLY MANUFACTURED BY THE SUPPLIER. THESE ASSEMBLIES, BOTH RH AND LH, WERE INCORRECTLY BUILT WITH THE FITTINGS MISORIENTED BY 90 DEGREES. THIS COULD CAUSE CHAFING OF THE BRAKE HOSE THROUGH CONTACT WITH THE ADJACENT TIRE DURING FULL TURNS.…
DEALER WILL INSPECT BOTH FRONT BRAKE HOSES AND, IF NECESSARY, REPLACE ONE OR BOTH HOSES AT NO CHARGE.
DUE TO COMPUTER INPUT ERROR WHICH RESULTED IN AN INCORRECT BUILD SCHEDULE, SOME VEHICLES WERE SHIPPED WITHOUT THE REQUIRED EXHAUST SYSTEM HEAT SHIELDS. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IDLED OVER AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME, A MISSING EXHAUST HEAT SHIELD MAY RESULT IN DANGEROUSLY HIGH FLOOR PAN TEMPERATURES.
DEALER WILL INSTALL FRAME-MOUNTING HEAT SHIELDS WITHOUT CHARGE TO OWNER.
