Issue

On certain vehicles, the terminal bolts that secure the main fuse terminals within the fuse block may not have been tightened properly during production. This may result an electrical open circuit, which could cause the terminals to overheat, potentially causing smoke, and increase the risk of a fire. Additionally, an open circuit could also affect operation of the box light, operation of the air suspension dump valve, the ABS warning light illuminating, and a possible engine stall. These conditions could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect and ensure the main fuse terminal bolts are tightened to specification.
