Details

On certain vehicles, the transmission fluid temperature could exceed the melting point of the connector which retains the fluid line to the transmission.

Should this occur, the fluid line may become disconnected from the transmission and fluid may spray onto the exhaust manifold, possibly resulting in a fire.

Correction: The connector fittings on the high temperature side of the transmission fluid cooler line will be replaced with connectors incorporating a stainless steel retainer.
