The hazard
On certain vehicles, the electrical ground cable that connects the engine block with the starter may be routed in a way that could cause chafing against the starter's positive battery cable. If chafing occurs, an electrical short may result and may cause a vehicle fire, possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if required, replace and reroute the ground cable.
