On certain vehicles, the potting material that encapsulates the circuit board of the remote power module may not sufficiently seal the circuit board from water and contamination intrusion. If the encapsulation is compromised, water and contaminants may cause an internal electrical short. An electrical short could cause a fire which can result in property damage, personal injury, or death. Correction: Dealers will install a fused electrical cable in the ground circuit of each suspect vehicle that has one or more remote power module(s).
A failure of this component (electrical) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).
On certain vehicles, the hand operated trailer brake control may have a partially blocked delivery port, which can cause the trailer brakes to be slow to apply an release when operated by the hand control valve. If this hand control valve is used while the vehicle is in motion, the slow brake application or release may contribute to loss of control of the vehicle causing a collision, possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: The dealer will replace the defective valves.
A failure of this component (brakes) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
