RE:
Coolant Leaking from Water Hoses at CVT8 Fluid Cooler
TIN NO.
TIN-18-23-004
AFFECTED VEHICLES: 2016 - 2018 Outlander Sport equipped with CVT8 transmission
(F1CJC/W1CJC)
PURPOSE
Dealers have reported coolant leaking from the water hoses at the CVT8 fluid cooler (see photo
below). Normal dealer repairs have been to replace the water hose and/or clamps on the
affected area.
(View looking up from the bottom of the vehicle)
In order to investigate this condition further, MMNA is looking to collect 3 complete sets of
CVT8 fluid coolers with the water hoses and clamps undisturbed. Please do not remove the
water hose clamps and hoses indicated by the circled areas in the photo below (the other hoses
are for the CVT8 oil, not coolant). This is important since MMC needs to perform a duplication
test to confirm the area of leakage.

Please open a Techline case, attach photos of the condition, and contact Techline (800-4466064) to review the findings. Product Support will then contact the dealership to arrange return
of the original parts to MMNA.
