Details |
On certain vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission, operating under rigorous off-road conditions could cause the transmission fluid temperature to elevate to the point of causing transmission failure. Should the transmission fluid boil over, it may come into contact with a hot engine or exhaust component and cause a fire which could result in property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will install a "HOTOIL" message in the instrument cluster and a chime to indicate elevated transmission fluid temperature.
