The hazard
Issue: On certain vehicles, the engine wiring harness may not be properly attached. As a result, the wiring could contact the air conditioning (A/C) compressor pulley. This can damage the wiring, and could result in a short circuit. Safety Risk: A short circuit can create the risk of a fire. Corrective Actions: Ford will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to install a tie strap to secure the wiring harness. The dealer will also inspect the wire harness and A/C compressor belt for damage. They will be repaired, as necessary.
