- The problem
- The fan clutch for the engine cooling system fan was combined with an inappropriate fan, which interferes with the drive and can cause the drive to separate.
- The risk
- If this condition occurs while the engine cover is open, a person working in the engine compartment of the vehicle could be struck by a portion of the fan clutch. If the fan clutch separates, the engine cooling system will not function properly.
- The fix
- Dealers will replace the fan which has a cupped mounting plate with a fan having a straight mounting plate. The fan clutch, which may have been damaged by interference with the fan, is being replaced with a new drive of the same model.
