Default Saftey Recall on Cold air intakes from K&N !!

Safety Recall Notice


WHY WE ARE TAKING THIS ACTION

K&N has discovered that the air delivery tubes in the covered kits, which were produced with either polypropylene or super linear polyethylene, have durability problems that can cause pieces of plastic to break away from the tube. Those pieces of plastic could enter the vehicle engine, where they could possibly cause the throttle to become temporarily jammed in the open position. This could potentially lead to a loss of control, which could result in a crash. Therefore, K&N is offering replacement air delivery tubes made with cross linked high density polyethylene, at no charge.

Im going to walk to the parking lot and see if its mine.

See if its you

Maybe we can sticky this to the forum Tani. I know alot of people do this mod.
