The modes of failure that could occur without warning, that may affect highway safety are: sudden acceleration, activation of engine compression brake, alternator overload and possible fire, engine speed dropping to idle, and loss of engine Electronic Control Module (ECM) power resulting in engine shutdown. Correction: Dealers will inspect, repair and relocate the engine harness.
