- The problem
- Due to computer input error which resulted in an incorrect build schedule, some vehicles were shipped without the required exhaust system heat shields. When the vehicle is idled over an extended period of time, a missing exhaust heat shield may result in dangerously high floor pan temperatures.
- The fix
- Dealer will install frame-mounting heat shields without charge to owner.
