The hazard
On certain vehicles equipped with a 2.4L engine, the coolant overflow from the recovery bottle may be drawn into the left radiator cooling fan motor connector. This can cause an electrical short circuit and could result in an engine compartment fire. Correction: Dealers will inspect the connector for contamination or damage, install a wiring harness overlay and, if necessary, replace the fan motor.
