What is wrong
THE COOLANT SYSTEM PRESSURE RELIEF CAP MAY NOT HAVE ADEQUATE PRESSURE VENTING CAPACITY. AN OVERHEATED ENGINE COULD RESULT IN ELEVATED COOLING SYSTEM PRESSURES WHICH COULD CAUSE THE VEHICLE'S HEATER CORE (LOCATED IN THE VICINITY OF THE DRIVER'S LEGS) TO RUPTURE AND DISCHARGE HOT COOLANT AND STEAM. THIS COULD RESULT IN INJURY TO THE DRIVER AS WELL AS CAUSE THE DRIVER TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE.
CORRECTION: THE COOLANT SYSTEM PRESSURE CAP WILL BE REPLACED ON ALL VEHICLES WITH A CAP WHICH HAS ADEQUATE VENTING CAPACITY.
