Details

What's wrong: Some of these vehicles have a condition in which the plastic supply or return port on the fuel pump module may crack, which could cause a fuel leak.

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

The fix: American Suzuki will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel pump module, free of charge. An interim letter was mailed on March 7, 2013.
