Recall information provided by National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
Component not known
01V253
On certain vans and wagons not equipped with power front seats, in the presence of road salt, water, and possibly other debris, the power seat connector located beneath the driver's seat could develop a high resistive short circuit that cycles the circuit breaker. If the circuit breaker cycles for an extended period of time, heat could build up in the connector, possibly resulting in a fire.
Owners are to receive instructions for removing the circuit breaker from the fuse panel. If an owner desires, their dealer can perform the repair. The manufacturer has reported that owner notification was expected to begin during September 2001. Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact DaimlerChrysler at 1-800-853-1403.
