What is wrong
THE ALTERNATING CURRENT POWER WIRE, WHICH SUPPLIES POWER TO THE CONDENSER FAN MOTORS, MAY HAVE BEEN GROUNDED BY CHAFING OF THE INSULATION AGAINST THE CABLE CLAMP AND CLAMP CONTACT OF THE TRANSMISSION OIL FILTER FLEXLINE. THIS COULD CAUSE THE CONDENSER FAN MOTOR WIRE TO OVERHEAT.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
THE HARNESS AND POWER FEED WIRING WILL BE REROUTED AND THE CABLE CLAMPS WILL BE RELOCATED.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
