FLUID INTRUSION INTO THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW SWITCH ASSEMBLIES MAY CAUSE AN ELECTRICAL SHORT WHICH CAN POTENTIALLY CAUSE THE SWITCHES TO OVERHEAT. THIS COULD RESULT IN A FIRE IN THE DOOR PANEL AREA. rnCORRECTION: TWO WINDOW SWITCH ASSEMBLIES WILL BE REPLACED WITH ASSEMBLIES OF A NEW DESIGN. IN ADDITION, 1984 MODELS WILL HAVE THE WINDOW SWITCH CONNECTORS REPLACED WITH CONNECTORS MADE OF A FLAME RETARDANT MATERIAL. NOTE: CONVERTIBLES ONLY ARE AFFECTED.
