Defect
In the automatic transmission hydraulic system, some oil hoses were vulcanized improperly during manufacturing, resulting in insufficient rubber hardness. This reduces the clamping force of the hose clips. In the worst case, the hose may pull free, causing an oil leak that renders the vehicle inoperable.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the oil hose with a conforming part.
