VIN Range 1 : Begin : NR End : NR Not sequential Description of Defect :
Description of the Defect : The exhaust gas recirculation (“EGR”) valve assembly in the subject vehicles may contain a sensor that was contaminated with solder flux during supplier manufacturing, which could potentially result in an electrical short. An electrical short within the EGR valve could lead to a malfunction of the EGR valve or crank position sensor, both of which reside on the same power circuit, resulting in MIL illumination and/or a sudden loss of motive power during operation.
FMVSS 1 : NR FMVSS 2 : NR
Description of the Safety Risk : Sudden, unexpected loss of motive power could increase the risk of a crash, especially at high speeds.
Description of the Cause : The EGR valve sensor leads could be contaminated with solder flux that has carbonized over time, increasing the risk of an electrical short between the sensor terminals. Identification of Any Warning
that can Occur : Illumination of the MIL Involved Components : Component Name 1 : VALVE ASSY-EGR
