The official record says: The affected vehicles may have been built with a driver side door wiring harness of an insufficient wire gauge, resulting in excessive heat which may melt the wiring insulation. The stated safety consequence is: Excessive heat and melting wiring insulation may result in an electrical short, increasing the risk of a fire. A make, model and year match does not confirm that a specific VIN is included or that the repair remains open.
