On certain vehicles, the center high mount stop lamp (CHMSL) fasteners may back off over time and cause a water leak, allowing water to flow into the rear compartment battery tub. When the battery tub fills with water to a height of 50mm or more, the DC/DC converter module board and connector are exposed to water which may cause corrosion. If water drains below the DC/DC converter, a resistive short may occur on the printed circuit board which could result in an unattended fire when the DC/DC converter is powered. Dealers are to inspect for water damage in the battery tub electrical components, and replace the CHSML gaskets and nuts (adding Loctite to the nut).","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2016/MC-10126004-9999.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2016/MC-10126004-0001.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10126004","components":[{"id":"structure-body","name":"Body and frame","parent":null},{"id":"electrical","name":"Electrical system","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"CHEVROLET","model":"CRUZE","year_from":2016,"year_to":2017,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2016_chevrolet_cruze","2017_chevrolet_cruze"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
