The driver sustained second degree burns on her feet as a result. The vehicle was towed to an authorized dealer, but the failure was not diagnosed. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, but the contact had not received a response for approximately two months. The failure mileage was 1,000. Updated 10/31/12 updated 11/1/2012
