FUEL LEAKAGE IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE COULD RESULT IN A FIRE.
DEALERS WILL INSTALL A NEW, REINFORCED FUEL HOSE ASSEMBLY. NOTE: THE FUEL LEAKAGE ISSUE IN THIS RECALL CAMPAIGN IS NOT THE SAME AS THE ONE ADDRESSED IN THEIR PREVIOUS CAMPAIGN 00V-253.
It may not apply to vehicles sold in your country. Check with your VIN at the source.
Details
On certain vehicles equipped with 4WD and torque-on-demand automatic transmission, in certain high speed frontal crashes, relative movement and abrasion of internal components can cause the potential for fuel leakage due to separation of the fuel hose and fuel line or a severed fuel hose. Correction: Dealers will install a revised fuel hose.
