DEFECT: IF THE VEHICLE IS OPERATED AFTER A COOLING SYSTEM COMPONENT HAS FAILED, THE COOLANT COULD OVERHEAT CAUSING THE COOLING SYSTEM'S PRESSURE TO RISE TO A LEVEL WHERE A LEAK IN THE HEAT EXCHANGER COULD OCCUR. THIS COULD ALLOW HOT COOLANT TO ESCAPE AND CAUSE INJURY TO THE FEET OF A PASSENGER OR STEAM UP THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. CORRECTION: A BYPASS VALVE KIT AND A PLASTIC COVER UNDERNEATH THE DASHBOARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WILL BE INSTALLED.
A failure of this component (heater and defroster) 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).
