“Wiring harness to air conditioner chaffed, touched body of tire well and burnt out fuse and harness. Vehicle only 2002 Chevrolet Tracker 44,000 miles and was not covered under any warranty at all. Even though no harm or eventful incident happened, I feel that this is a defect, this should not have gone out in 3 years time.”
