Consumer Description

ANYTIME IT RAINS WATER LEAKS IN BEHIND THE DASHBOARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, LEAKING WATER THROUGH THE ELECTRICAL WIRING AND INTO THE FLOORBOARD OF THE TRUCK THERE ARE LOTS OF WIRES AND A BLOWER MOTOR IN THIS AREA WHERE FIRE COULD CAUSE ANY NUMBER OF UNSAFE CONDITIONS. THE CAUSE HAS BEEN NARROWED DOWN TO ONE OR BOTH OF TWO THINGS. THE FIRST IS A CRACK THAT ORIGINATES IN THE SEAM BEHIND THE DASH BOARD OF THESE VEHICLES DUE TO PRODUCTION ERROR. THE SECOND IS ROTTING GROMMET PLUGS UNDER THE WINDSHIELD WIPER COWL. THE FIRST BEING MUCH MORE SEVERE AS IT COULD ALSO CAUSE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY.
