## NHTSA's summary

Posting informing the community that after investigation, the conclusion is that some 2012 units were produced with water pumps mechanical seals installed slightly crocked in the clutch cover. This cause the seal to develop a leak on the side of the seal that had less pressure. Replacement parts should be installed using the revised procedure of the 2013 shop manual. TST is enclosed for the replacement procedure.
