Details

On certain vehicles equipped with a rear air conditioning system, the rear interior light units, mounted in the rear air conditioning duct work, may overheat.

In certain conditions, heat from the bulb, due to long term operation, can cause the lens to distort.

As a result, the electrical contacts could cause a short circuit, which may lead to a vehicle fire.

Correction: Dealers will replace the rear interior lamps with a modified version that contains lower wattage bulbs.
