Details

What's wrong: These vehicles may have incorrectly fuel line end forms which could result in a lower than specified pull apart force for the installed fuel line connection.

Why it matters: Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire.

The fix: Dealers will install a redundant fuel line clip on the fuel supply and return line connections at the rear of the chassis fuel line bundle.
