Recalls

On certain vehicles equipped with a trunk-mounted sub-woofer, cargo in the trunk could contact the sub-woofer's soft braided wire, which could cause the wire to move out of its normal position.

If one of these wires were to come into contact with the metal frame of the sub-woofer, it could result in a intermittent short, causing the integrated circuit (IC) in the audio amplifier to become damaged.

In some cases, the damaged IC could create a closed circuit between the power supply and sub-woofer, and electric current could continue to flow to the sub-woofer.

If this were to occur, the sub-woofer could overheat, increasing the risk of fire, causing injury and/or damage to property.

Correction: To be determined.

In the interim, dealers will disconnect the rear sub-woofer.
