NHTSA recall 06V398000
Fuel System, Gasoline · General Motors, LLC
Details
What's wrong: On certain passenger vehicles equipped with a 1.6L engine, during a ncap severe frontal crash test, the fuel line in the engine compartment developed a fracture. In addition, the crash damage caused four short circuits in the fuse block, the combination of which allowed the fuel pump to continue running and fuel leaked onto the ground.
Why it matters: If these conditions occurred in an actual crash, a vehicle fire could occur.
The fix: Dealers will replace the fuse block and install a new section of fuel line that has been redesigned free of charge. The recall began on November 16, 2006.
