Details

What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with a gasoline engine. During the manufacturing process, particles may have been trapped between the fuel rail and injectors, which can cause a fuel leak.

Why it matters: A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source, such as hot engine or exhaust components, can increase the risk of a fire.

The fix: Dealers will replace the fuel rail and fuel injectors, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 22, 2022.
