Reported risk: On certain vehicles equipped with power sliding doors, the sliding door wiring harness may have been routed improperly and chafe on the lower sliding door hinge bracket. This could result in a fire within the sliding door assembly, which could lead to property damage or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect the sliding door wire track harness and power drive unit wiring harness assemblies for damage. The harnesses will be repaired or replaced as necessary, and rerouted under the sliding door weatherstrip.
