Details

On certain vehicles, the plastic ignition switch housing may fracture at the return spring anchor point.

Fracture of the housing could cause the return spring force to be insufficient for returning the ignition key to the running position after starting the engine.

This condition causes electrical accessories such as windshield wipers and headlights to become inoperative.

Correction: Ignition switch will be replaced with a modified switch.
