Details

Certain vehicles do not comply with CMVSS 1103 - Exhaust Emissions.

Vehicles may been built with the ignition coil wire too close to metal brackets or the transmission fluid fill tube (M/L van only).

If the coil wire is too close to these metal objects, arcing may occur and cause failure of the wires which can in turn lead to a stalling/no start condition and/or catalytic converter failures.

Correction: coil wire will be repositioned to assure adequate clearance from metal brackets and/or transmission fluid fill tubes.
