Defect
On these hybrid vehicles, the engine room wiring harness is routed incorrectly, leaving insufficient clearance between the harness and the bracket securing the engine control unit. The harness contacts the bracket, wearing through the wire insulation and causing a short circuit. In the worst case, the engine stalls while driving and cannot be restarted.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, install interference protection material on the affected section of the engine room wiring harness.
