What NHTSA recorded

The plastic transmission shift linkage bushings installed on the involved vehicles may become heat damaged because they are located near the mini-catalytic converter. This condition could alter the adjusted relationship of the transmission shift linkage, causing the transmission to be in a gear position other than that indicated by the gear shift selector.

Remedy

Dealer will replace the plastic bushings with steel bushings and install retaining clips to ensure that shift rod is securely engaged to the linkage system.
