Issue

On certain vehicles, the plug top ignition coil (PTC) may not provide sufficient protection against electrical noise and wires inside the coil could be damaged as a result. If this occurs, the coil could overheat and melt, potentially causing the check engine light to illuminate, and/or the engine or fuel injection system to malfunction. This could result in an engine stall resulting in loss of motive power which, in conjunction with traffic and road conditions, and the driver's reactions, could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the plug top ignition coil (PTC) with a new PTC of a different design.
