What the source says
The documented condition

The official record says: Incorrect soldering of the flexible printed circuit assembled (FPCA), inside the high voltage (HV) battery, may cause an unreliable connection. The stated safety consequence is: An unreliable battery connection may cause a stall, increasing the risk of a crash. A make, model and year match does not confirm that a specific VIN is included or that the repair remains open.
