Details

What's wrong: The fuel pressure regulator o-ring may have been damaged when the fuel pressure regulator was installed in the engine fuel rail. If the o-ring is damaged, fuel vapor or leakage could occur.

Why it matters: If an ignition source is present, a fire could result.

The fix: Dealers will replace the fuel pressure regulator.
