Details
What's wrong: Cracks may develop in the fuel hose connection on the outlet pressure side of the fuel pump.
Why it matters: Fuel can leak from the hose connection. A fuel leak, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire.
The fix: Dealers will replace the fuel pump bracket including all nipples with a new and stronger design part. This service will be performed free of charge. The recall is expected to begin during September 2009.
