• 95V069000Mar 30, 199513,400 vehicles potentially affected
  Fuel system, gasoline › Delivery › Hoses, lines/piping, and fittings
  Covers: Mazda RX-7 1993–1994

  Possible consequence: This condition can result in an engine compartment fire.

  Remedy: Dealers will install an additional control unit for the electric cooling fan. The fan will then activate after the engine is turned off when the coolant exceeds a specified temperature. The fuel hoses will also be replaced with revised hoses.

  Possible consequence: If engine coolant leaks onto the hot engine exhaust manifold from the top of the engine, an engine compartment fire can result.

  Remedy: Dealers will inspect the vehicles and if any vehicle exhibits coolant leakage or if the coolant level has dropped to the point where the coolant loss would be sufficient to trigger the coolant level warning system, components potentially subject to deterioration from overheating would be replaced. These parts include…
