09132E - CUSTOMER SATISFACTION (REVISED EXPIRATION DATE). CERTAIN VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH A V6 OR V8 ENGINE MAY HAVE A CONDITION IN WHICH THE POWER STEERING COOLER LINE MAY LEAK OR SPLIT. WHEN THESE VEHICLES ARE STARTED IN COLD WEATHER, THE PRESSURE ON THE HOSE IS SUBSTANTIALLY HIGHER THAN IN WARMER WEATHER AND MAY EXCEED THE STRENGTH OF THE POWER STEERING HOSE OR CLAMPS. IF THIS WERE TO OCCUR, THE DRIVER WOULD LIKELY NOTICE FLUID SPOTTING UNDER THE VEHICLE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED AND A DECREASE IN THE POWER STEERING ASSIST. IF ENOUGH FLUID WERE LOST, DAMAGE TO THE POWER STEERING PUMP COULD OCCUR. DEALERS ARE TO REPLACE THE POWER STEERING HOSE ASSEMBLY ON VEHICLES WITH A V8 ENGINE, OR REPLACE A LENGTH OF HOSE AND CLAMPS ON VEHICLES WITH A V6 ENGINE.
