Engine

Issue Description

On certain sport utility vehicles the accelerator cable could have become kinked during vehicle assembly, resulting in chaffing of the cable. Continued chaffing can lead to breakage of the interior cable strands. Breakage of the cable strands can result in the throttle being stuck in the open position, increasing the risk of a crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect and replace the damaged cables where necessary.

Safety Risk

A failure of this component (engine) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.

Corrective Action & Repair

Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).

Brakes

Issue Description

On certain sport utility vehicles contamination of an anti-lock braking system (ABS) sensor can cause the ABS electronic control unit (ecu) to incorrectly interpret the sensor signal, resulting in inappropriate abs activation. This can lead to an increase in braking distance that is unanticipated by the driver. Correction: Dealers will install a new ECU.

Safety Risk

A failure of this component (brakes) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.

Corrective Action & Repair

Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).

Powertrain

Issue Description

On certain vehicles, water contamination of the automatic transmission oil can lead to various failure modes of the transmission. One of these failure modes results in incorrect operation of the park lock function that could allow a vehicle to roll away if parked without the handbrake properly set. Correction: Dealers will check the park lock function; reposition the automatic transmission breather tube; and test the automatic transmission fluid and flush if necessary.

Safety Risk

A failure of this component (powertrain) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.

Brakes

Issue Description

On certain vehicles equipped with Active Cornering Enhancement (ACE), the high-pressure hydraulic pipe that runs from the ACE pump to the ACE valve block could fracture at its union with the pump. This will result in a loss of hydraulic fluid. A low fluid level can subsequently result in system pump failure which will throw off the auxiliary drive belt, resulting in a loss of engine auxiliary functions (power steering assist, water pump, alternator, and air conditioning). In extreme circumstances, there is a possibility that the hydraulic fluid could ignite, resulting in an engine compartment fire. Correction: Dealers will install new hydraulic tubing.

Safety Risk

A failure of this component (brakes) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.

Corrective Action & Repair

Powertrain

Issue Description

On certain vehicles equipped with the Active Cornering Enhancement (ACE) system, the left side engine idler pulley can fracture and ultimately fail. This would cause the pulley to throw off the serpentine belt, which can result in loss of auxiliary functions (power steering, water pump, alternator, air conditioning and ACE). Loss of steering assist would require increased steering effort and create the risk of a vehicle crash. Correction: Plastic idler pulley will be removed and replaced with a newly designed steel pulley.

Safety Risk

A failure of this component (powertrain) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.

Corrective Action & Repair

Steering

Issue Description

On certain vehicles, vibration in the Active Cornering Enhancement (ACE) high pressure hydraulic tubing can result in a leak and loss of system fluid. Low fluid levels can result in system pump failure which will throw off the auxiliary drive belt, resulting in a loss of engine auxiliary functions (power steering, water pump, alternator and air conditioning). Should this occur, steering effort will be increased, which may increase the risk of a vehicle crash. Correction: Dealers will install new specification hydraulic tubing.

Safety Risk

A failure of this component (steering) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
