Skylark L4-144 2.4L DOHC VIN T SFI (1997)
Fuse Block: All Technical Service Bulletins
Recall 97V059000: Fuse Cover Installation
The protective cover for the underhood fuse center was omitted. Without this cover, the positive terminal bolt on the fuse block is exposed and can
contact the insulated negative battery cable. If the insulation on the negative cable becomes sufficiently worn, an electrical short circuit can occur
between the positive terminal and negative cable resulting in extremely high current flow. This high current flow can cause arcing and result in an
underhood fire. Dealers will inspect these vehicles for the presence of the protective cover and, if necessary, install a protective cover to the underhood
fuse center.
Owner Notification: Owner notification began during April 1997.
