In this condition, the vehicle can be started with the transaxle in gear (not in neutral) without the clutch pedal depressed. If the driver is not applying the brake, the vehicle may move unexpectedly and a crash could occur.  Correction:  Dealers will install a shield to prevent contact between the column boot and the clutch pedal position switch.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"00037","part_number":null,"units":48,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","french":{"component":"Groupe motopropulseur","notification":"Sécurité - fabricant","summary":"Sur certains véhicules dotés de la boîte de vitesses manuelle, le poussoir du contact de positionnement de la pédale d’embrayage peut entrer en contact avec le cache-poussière de la colonne de direction et ne pas être en mesure de se déployer quand on appuie sur l’embrayage. On peut donc faire démarrer le moteur alors que la boîte-pont est en prise (n’est pas au point mort) et sans appuyer sur la pédale d’embrayage. Si le conducteur n’a pas le pied sur le frein, il se peut que le véhicule se déplace de façon imprévue et qu’un accident s’ensuive.
