NHTSA recall 18V432000
Fuel System, Gasoline · Toyota Motor Corporation
Details
What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with 3.5L v6 2gr-fse gasoline engines. The diaphragms in the fuel pulsation dampers may harden over time and develop cracks, possibly causing a fuel leak.
Why it matters: A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.
The fix: Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel delivery pipe with a new pipe that has improved pulsation dampers, free of charge. The recall began August 23, 2018.
