chafing

BMWが世界規模のリコ−ルです。あ〜ん、いやだ〜！うちのは大丈夫かな？２行目の書き方、かなり急いでいる印象を受けました。chafing、つまりchafeは「皮膚をすりむく、手をこすって温める」という意味で用いますが、ケーブルのこすれにも使うのですね。In a chafe!（UG）

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- BMW is recalling 367,000 5-series and 6-series cars in the United States because a battery cable cover in the trunk may have been incorrectly installed.

The problem could lead to chafing of the battery cable which could, in turn, lead to electrical problems, trouble starting and, in some cases, fire, the automaker said.

The cars involved were manufactured between 2003 and 2010. Owners of affected vehicles will be notified by mail and will be asked to bring their vehicle to a BMW dealer for a 30 minute repair at no charge, the automaker said.
No accidents or injuries have been reported as a result of the problem according to BMW.
BMW has also recently announced a rash of recalls of the German automaker's BMW, Mini, and Rolls-Royce divisions over water pump problems.
