Abstract
A power distribution box assembly includes a lower cover and a connector assembly. The connector assembly includes a connector housing and a dress cover. A wire bundle is routed from the connector housing through an opening of the lower cover. A retention feature is provided to prevent a cantilevered force generated by a bend in the wire bundle from dislodging the connector assembly out of position with respect to the lower cover.
