Details

What's wrong: Distorted fuel lines in engine compartment may contact the steering column universal joint and cause damage to the fuel line.

Why it matters: Fuel leakage could occur from the damaged fluid line and,in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire.

The fix: Reposition fuel line to prevent contact with universal joint; if fuel lines are already damaged, repair or replace fuel lines.
