What NHTSA recorded

On certain vehicles, the air starter valves may become internally damaged during normal operation. This may result in a malfunction of the valve, causing the air starter to self actuate and start the engine of an unattended vehicle.

Remedy

The dealer will replace the valve with a current production version at no cost to owner.
