Defect
The armature — the disc that engages and disengages the air conditioning compressor from the pulley — was formed using an improper die during the manufacturing process, resulting in insufficient strength on some units. As the vehicle accumulates use, the armature may detach, causing the air conditioning to stop functioning. In the worst case, the detached armature may fall onto the road surface.
Corrective action
Replace the affected air conditioning compressor on all vehicles with a conforming unit.
