Power Train / Automatic Transmission / Lever and Linkage / Floor Shift
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
On certain passenger vehicles, the floor shifter ignition-park interlock may fail and allow the shifter to be moved out of the park position with the key removed. An inoperative interlock may also allow the key to be removed when the shifter has not been placed in the park position.
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
Either circumstance may result in the vehicle rolling away without warning.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record

Suspension / Front / Control Arm / Lower Arm
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
Vehicle description: passenger vehicles. The lower control arm attaching brackets can crack due to fatigue and separate from the engine cradle.
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
If this occurs, the transmission half-shaft could pull out of the transaxle and result in loss of power.

Fuel System, Gasoline / Fuel Injection System
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
Vehicle description: passenger vehicles built with 3.5l engines. The fuel injection delivery system can leak fuel from some of the sealing o-rings or from hair line cracks in the thermoset fuel injection rail.
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source can result in a fire.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will replace the fuel rail o-rings and reinforce the outlet (passenger) side fuel rail. Vehicles showing fuel leakage on the outlet fuel rail must have the outlet rail replaced which includes changing the upper and lower injector o-rings. However, if a vehicle is leaking fuel from the o-rings or from a cracked fuel line, the vehicle should be taken into a dealer to have this repaired as soon as possible.

Electrical System / Wiring
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
The right steering tie rod can rub through the automatic transmission wiring harness causing a short circuit which results in electrical system malfunctions including engine stalling and an inoperative park/starter interlock system.
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
Electrical system malfunction causing stalling while in motion or an inoperative park/starter interlock system, which allows engine start while the transmission is not in the park position, may result in an accident.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Install a revised wiring harness bracket and a plastic convoluted sleeve to protect the transmission wiring harness.
