Defect description

THESE VEHICLES WERE EQUIPPED WITH INCORRECT FUEL TUBES AND REAR FUEL HOSES. THIS MAY CAUSE THE FUEL HOSE TO CONTACT THE LEFT EXHAUST OUTLET PIPE. THE HEAT FROM THE EXHAUST PIPE WILL DETERIORATE THE HOSE AND CAUSE A FUEL LEAK TO DEVELOP.

Manufacturer remedy

THE DEALER WILL MODIFY THE FUEL TUBE ROUTING AND SHORTEN THE HOSE TO PROVIDE THE SPECIFIED CLEARANCE AT NO COST TO OWNER.
