What are the defects?
Due to a manufacturing issue, the radiator on some vehicles may not be properly secured. This could cause the radiator to move and may result in the loss of engine coolant. A loss of coolant will be indicated by visual and audible warnings for low coolant. If the warnings are ignored by the driver, engine overheating and subsequent power loss can occur.
What are the hazards?
A loss of vehicle power while driving increases the risk of an accident, causing serious injury or death to vehicle occupants and other road users.
