Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
LOSS OF POWER TO THE SECONDARY ELECTRICAL BRAKING SYSTEM CAN RESULT IN INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCES AND POSSIBLE VEHICLE ACCIDENT.
DEPENDING ON THE LOCATION AND THE ELECTRICAL DEMAND, A COMBINATION OF CORROSION AND HEAT CAN CAUSE A MOMENTARY BREAK ON EITHER OF TWO ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS AT THE BULKHEAD CONNECTOR (21 OR 29).
IF THESE CIRCUITS FAIL, THE IGNITION, PARKING LIGHT, FUEL PUMP, FUSE PANELS AND THE SECONDARY ELECTRICAL BRAKING SYSTEM WILL LOSE POWER.

What should you do?
POWER FROM THE BATTERY WILL BE RUN DIRECTLY TO THE STOP LAMP SWITCH AND THE IGNITION SWITCH. THIS WILL ELIMINATE THE BULKHEAD CONNECTION FOR THE IGNITION CIRCUIT AND BACK-UP BRAKE CIRCUIT AS WELL AS DIVIDING UP THE LOAD ON THE TWO QUESTIONABLE CIRCUITS.

What the record doesn’t say
- NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
- Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
- This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
- How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
