The official notice
Defect
On certain vehicles, the hydraulic clutch actuator (HCA) was produced with burrs that could damage the inner oil seal. A damaged oil seal may create an oil leak that could result in an accumulation of oil in the phase cap area, and eventually cause an electrical short. This could increase the risk of an engine compartment fire causing injury and/or damage to property.
Safety Risk
No risk description available.
Remedy
Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the hydraulic clutch actuator.
