This directive requires a one time inspection, repair if necessary , and the relocation of wire bundles above the door. These actions are intended to prevent the wires from becoming worn or broken, which could lead to the failure of several systems such as the fuel shut-off valves.","sortOrder":0}],"analysis":{"flash_summary_failed":{"failed":true,"reason":"Unauthenticated.
