NHTSA's recall notice
As NHTSA's recall record states it for campaign 16V809000.
Defect description

The power steering hose on the affected vehicles may be routed incorrectly, and, as a result, the hose may rub against the power stud on the starter motor, possibly causing electrical arcing and a power steering fluid leak.
Safety consequence
Electrical arcing in the presence of leaking power steering fluid can increase the risk of a fire.
Manufacturer remedy
DTNA will notify owners, and dealers will reroute the power steering hose to provide proper clearance, free of charge. The recall began on December 27, 2016. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712 . DTNA's number for this recall is FL-727.
