Summary
Service Action: The F16 position fuse could fail prematurely due to possible degradation of the fuse?s coating material. If this happens, it could cause a partial loss (but not a complete failure) of vehicle lighting, including the loss of DRL illumination on one side of the vehicle, which in turn could render the vehicle less visible to other motorists and pedestrians during daylight hours. The corrective action taken was to Replace the existing F16 position fuse with a new, optimized hard-coated fuse. This document informs how to install the new fuse and how to make a claim for the work provided

Owners of these vehicles have filed 371 complaints in the electrical category.
