ISSUE
The engine mounts on some vehicles may not exhibit satisfactory durability under severe operating conditions that may be encountered by Police, Taxi or Limo/Livery vehicles such as extended idling at high ambient temperatures. This may be caused by the extreme heat generated by the engine under these conditions.

ACTION
If service to the engine mounts is required, install new revised engine mounts which incorporate a heat shield. For left side engine mount, use 1W7Z-6038-BA - right side engine mount, use 1W7Z-6038-AA. Refer to the appropriate model/year Workshop Manual, Section 303-01 for replacement procedure.
