On certain vehicles, the connection securing the cable from the 48 V battery to the starter-generator may not have been tightened properly. As a result, the connection could loosen and cause a short circuit and/or a loss of power to the wheels.
Note: This recall only affects certain vehicles equipped with a 2.0L engine.

Safety Risk:
A short circuit could increase the risk of a fire. A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash.
