What is wrong

What can happen
THIS COULD LEAD TO A SHORT CIRCUIT AND POSSIBLY A SUBSEQUENT FIRE.
The remedy
DEALERS WILL CHECK THE WIRING HARNESS ROUTING AND WILL CHANGE THE DAMAGED WIRES. IN ADDITION THE WIRING HARNESS WILL BE RELOCATED IN SUCH A WAY AS TO PREVENT RUBBING. THE RECALL BEGAN ON MAY 18, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT SETRA AT 1-800-882-8054.
