- Campaign:
- 12V126000 on 03/25/2012
- Component:
- Electrical system:battery:cables
- Manufactured:
- 08/31/2003 - 07/30/2010
- Affected:
- 367,682
- Defect:

- Consequence:
- Overheating could lead to a fire, even while the vehicle is not in use. as a precaution, owners are advised to park outside until the remedy has been made.
- Correction:
