What is wrong

NOTE: VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH THE MEMORY SEAT OPTION.

THE MEMORY SEAT MODULE WIRING HARNESS MAY COME IN CONTACT WITH THE SEAT SPRING. IF THIS OCCURS, A LOW RESISTANCE SHORT CIRCUIT MAY DEVELOP, RESULTING IN LOCALIZED HEATING. IF THE RESISTANCE REMAINS BELOW THE CIRCUIT PROTECTION THRESHOLD THE HEAT COULD IGNITE THE SEAT CUSHION MATERIAL.

CORRECTION: MEMORY SEAT CONTROL MODULE AND WIRING HARNESS WILL BE RELOCATED AND A PROTECTIVE COVER WILL BE INSTALLED ON THE SEAT FRAME.
