What Happened

Risk if Unfixed
If the wiring overheats, even when your engine is turned off, it could ignite a fire in your vehicle. This could cause serious injury or damage to your property.
Free Fix
Your dealer will inspect the wiring and replace any faulty parts for free. Meanwhile, you should park your vehicle outside, away from buildings, until the repair is done.
