What is wrong
The engine cooling fan assemblies can break from fatigue caused by engine and/or vehicle induced stresses.
The risk
If this occurs while the hood or engine compartment was open, a person in the vicinity of the engine could be struck by a fan segment and injured.
The fix
Dealers will replace the existing engine cooling fan with a newly released fan assembly having rivets with larger heads.
