On certain vehicles, wiring harness connector could corrode due to exposure to snow/water containing road salt. This could result in an electrical short causing damage to the connector and increasing the risk of a fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will add a waterproof seal, inspect the harness connector and replace as necessary.

On certain vehicles, the steering gear housing cover screw may have been manufactured out of specification and the axial tension between the screw and gear housing may deteriorate over time.  This could allow the screw to gradually loosen, which will cause the steering wheel to exhibit noticeable looseness from the steering assembly.  If the vehicle continues to be driven in this condition, the screw may eventually come out of the steering gear housing.  If large steering inputs are made with the cover screw missing, the pinion shaft may come out of the steering gear.  This may result in a loss of steering control, which could lead to a crash causing property damage, personal injury or death.  Correction: Dealers will inspect whether the steering gear cover screw is loose.  If it is loose, it will be retightened to the proper specification.  In addition, the dealer will install a cover plate to prevent the screw from possibly coming out of the steering gear.

On certain vehicles, material in the nut used to secure the sensor-transmitter of the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) may corrode and crack in areas with heavy concentrations of road salt.  If this occurs, the nut may come out of the TPMS sensor-transmitter causing a rapid loss of tire air pressure.  This could adversely affect vehicle control and cause a crash resulting in property damage, personal injury or death.  Correction: Dealers will replace the TPMS nut with a revised version.
