SOME VEHICLES MAY EXHIBIT A RATTLE NOISE AND/OR EXHAUST LEAKING NOISE FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE NOISE MAY BE CAUSED BY A GAP BETWEEN THE EXHAUST HANGER BRACKET AND FLANGE, WHICH ALLOWS MOISTURE CONTAINING ROAD SALT TO ENTER AND CAUSE THE EXHAUST STUDS TO RUST AND POSSIBLY BREAK OFF.THE WELDING LOCATION OF THE EXHAUST HANGER BRACKET AND FLANGE HAS BEEN CHANGED DURING VEHICLE PRODUCTION TO ENSURE THE HANGER BRACKET AND FLANGE ARE FLUSH, WITH NO GAPS THAT COULD ALLOW INTRUSION OF MOISTURE CONTAINING ROAD SALT.THE PURPOSE OF THIS BULLETIN IS TO CUT AND CLEAN THE WELDING LOCATION OF THE EXHAUST HANGER BRACKET AND RE-ATTACH IT, SO THE HANGER BRACKET AND FLANGE ARE FLUSH WITH NO GAPS, TO PREVENT INTRUSION OF MOISTURE CONTAINING ROAD SALT.

SOME CUSTOMERS MAY COMPLAIN OF CONDENSATION/FOG INSIDE THE FRONT OR REAR COMBINATION LIGHTS. THE RECENT NEW MODELS HAVE BEEN FITTED WITH A CLEAR LENS WHICH CAN CAUSE THE SYMPTOM TO BE MORE NOTICEABLE, HOWEVER, IT DOES NOT AFFECT THE PERFORMANCE OF THE LIGHT. THIS CONDENSATION/FOG IS A NATURAL HENOMENON THAT OCCURS WHEN THERE IS A FAIRLY LARGE TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE INSIDE AND THE OUTSIDE OF THE LIGHT HOUSING. IT IS NORMAL FOR VERY SMALL WATER DROPS TO APPEAR IN CERTAIN LOCATIONS ON THE LIGHT UNITS WHERE THE AIR IS STAGNANT (CONDENSATION), MAKING THE LENS LOOK WHITISH (FOG). THIS HAPPENS MOSTLY IN THE CORNERS AND NARROW SPACES, AND WILL TYPICALLY CLEAR DURING WARMER AMBIENT TEMPERATURES, OR WHEN THE LIGHTS HAVE BEEN ON FOR SOME TIME. EXPLAIN TO THE CUSTOMER THAT THIS IS A NATURAL PHENOMENON AND NOT A QUALITY DEFECT. DO NOT ATTEMPT REPAIRS AS THIS IS CONSIDERED NORMAL, AND IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. REPLACING THE LIGHT UNIT WILL NOT CORRECT THIS SYMPTOM.
