## What is wrong

THESE VEHICLES MAY HAVE BEEN BUILT WITH AN UNUSED POWER SEAT HARNESS CONNECTOR THAT WAS POSITIONED ON THE FLOOR MAT UNDER THE SEAT. IN AREAS WHERE ROAD SALT IS USED, A BRINE MAY ACCUMULATE ON THE FLOOR MATS AND REPEATEDLY WET THE CONNECTOR. THIS COULD CORRODE THE CONNECTOR AND RESULT IN A SALT BRIDGE BETWEEN THE TERMINALS CAUSING CURRENT FLOW WHICH COULD OVERHEAT THE CONNECTOR WITH RESULTANT FUMES AND A POSSIBLE FIRE.

CORRECTION: UNUSED CONNECTORS WILL BE REMOVED AND SEALED HEAT SHRINK CAPS WILL BE PLACED OVER THE AFFECTED WIRES.
