Consumer Description
THE EEC WIRING (TWO HARNESSES FOR THE TRANSMISSION) FAILED. THE FAILURE CAUSED THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION TO OPERATE ERRATICALLY. THE DEALER STATES THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO WATER AND SNOW SPLASHING UP ONTO THE WIRING CAUSING A GREAT DEAL OF CORROSION. THE REPLACEMENT PARTS WILL BE THE SAME AS THE ORIGINAL PARTS. NO OTHER MEASURES ARE SUGGESTED BY THE MANUFACTURER TO AVOID THIS PROBLEM IN THE FUTURE. THE WIRING IN QUESTION SHOULD HAVE BEEN ADEQUATELY SHIELDED IN ORDER TO PREVENT THE EXPOSURE THAT CAUSED THE CORROSION.
