On certain vehicles, an unplugged hole in the floorboard can allow road salt and moisture into an area where a 12 volt power outlet is mounted. A short between the outlet terminals may develop that can cause an electrical fire. Correction: Vehicles will be inspected to determine if a floorboard plug was installed. On vehicles found without a plug, a new outlet plug will be installed.
