Description
The recall concerns vehicles with chassis numbers from JSAJTD44V00106868 to JSAJTD44V00223811 (5D) and from JSAJTA44V00107438 to JSAJTA44V00208921 (3D), with a production period between beginning of June 2005 and 28 February 2007.
Risk
The product poses a risk of fire as, due to improper protection of the engine harness, the harness can come into contact with the bolt securing the timing belt cover, or the timing belt cover itself, and thus the harness insulator may be damaged. If driven repeatedly in such condition, the harness may short-circuit, causing malfunction of the engine. In the worst case, it could result in a fire.
