What is wrong

On certain passenger vehicles, the fuel pump wiring may become chafed by an underbody heat shield.

The risk

This could cause the fuel pump fuse to open, resulting in an engine stall, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will install a protective wrap on the fuel pump wiring harness and cover the edge of the heat shield. Owner notification began september 9, 2003. Owners should contact daimlerchrysler at 1-[removed].
