What NHTSA recorded

Excessive heat may be transferred to the vehicle floor pan in the rear seat area. This occurs because the muffler heat shield was omitted during manufacture of certain fleet cars. Rear seat cushions may be scorched by heat.

Remedy

Heat sheilds are being sent directly to fleet owners, who may either install them personally or arrange for dealer installation.
