Details

On certain vehicles equipped with a diesel engine, the positive battery cable connection to the fuse box could fail while the vehicle is being driven.

This could interrupt the vehicle’s electrical system, resulting in engine stalling, a loss of vehicle propulsion and a loss of function of various vehicle systems, such as lights.

A loss of vehicle propulsion and vehicle electrical systems, in conjunction with traffic and road conditions, and the driver’s reactions, could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury.

Correction: Dealers will replace the positive battery cable connector with an updated version.

Note: This is an expansion of recall 2013-048.
