What NHTSA recorded

The wiring harness may have been entrapped, out of position, in a pinched condition at a frame outrigger during assembly of the body chassis. The trailer feed wire is not protected by a fuse or circuit and is susceptible to a short circuit occurrence.

Remedy

The dealer will inspect vehicles for this pinched condition, add clipping to ensure positive location of wiring harness and proper separation from fuel line at outrigger and install a circuit breaker on the trailer feed wire at no charge.
