Details
What's wrong: On certain sedans, a small amount of water may have been left in the fuel pump electrical connector after testing. This residual water could cause the fuel pump to fail due to corrosion.
Why it matters: If the pump stops working, the engine will stall without warning, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Dealers will inspect the fuel pump. If corrosion is found, the fuel pump will be replaced. Owner notification began June 29, 2001.
