The hazard

On certain vehicles equipped with a 2.4L engine, the engine cover could shift over time due to road vibrations. If the engine cover were to displace, it could result in the cover contacting the exhaust manifold, which could result in a fire, increasing the risk of injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will install an enhanced retaining device to the engine cover.
