## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, inconsistent application of grease during the manufacturing process could cause the driver's side power window master switch to stick or become inoperative due to electrical contact point wear. This could cause debris to accumulate between the contact points, potentially resulting in an electrical short circuit.  If a short circuit occurs, the switch assembly may overheat, produce smoke, melt and/or potentially lead to a fire causing injury and/or property damage. Correction:  Dealers will inspect the driver's power window master switch and apply a specialized grease that inhibits heat build\-up, or replace the power window master switch circuit board, as necessary.  Note: This is an expansion of recall 2012\-342.
