Electrical system: wiring

What is wrong: An unused harness connector for power windows, power door locks and sunroof was improperly routed under the floor carpet in the left kick panel. If the vehicle is operated in cold weather conditions where large amounts of road salts are used, the salt water or snow carried into the vehicle by the driver's shoes can penetrate the carpet and drip onto the connector resulting in the formation of a salt bridge between the terminals.
Risk: This causes an electrical short inside the harness, and can result in a vehicle fire.
Remedy: Dealers will remove the unused harness connector.
