R And R Manifold / Header / Muffler / Tail Pipe Recall 92V144000

The problem

The heat shield, between the muffler and the plywood storage compartment, contains oversize holes which allow heat from a ruptured muffler to penetrate through to the plywood storage compartment.

The risk

If the muffler ruptures, the plywood storage compartmentcan ignite, causing a vehicle fire and becoming a safety hazard to othervehicles or persons in the immediate vicinity.

The fix

Install additional heat shielding between the muffler and the original muffler shield.
