What NHTSA recorded

A resistor in the electronic panel cluster may be subjected to an electrical current overload due to failure of a switching transistor. Consequence of defect: the overheated resistor could ignite and start an instrument panel fire.

Remedy

Modify instrument panel cluster by replacing the resistor with a fused resistor that will not ignite if overloaded.
