| Defect Summary : On certain vans, the air filter element material process resulted in an air filter paper element that can smolder or burn. this change in filter paper composition combined with the configuration of the air induction system, may allow hot carbon particles to contact the air filter element during certain driving conditions that create hot particles. |
Consequence Summary: These hot particles may ignite the air filter element with the potential for air induction system damage or underhood fire. |
