Defect	Due to insufficient durability of internal components of the electric heater, prolonged use may damage internal components, causing the heater to stop operating and the defrosting system's performance to degrade. As a result, frost/fog (condensation) on the front windshield may not be sufficiently removed, making it difficult for the driver to secure visibility, and in the worst case, there is a risk of an accident, leading to this recall.
Component	HVAC System, Other
Remedy	Replace the electric heater with an improved part for affected vehicles.
