What NHTSA recorded

Possible consequence

Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect the fuel line for abrasion and install a clip to ensure isolation. In cases with evidence of fuel line abrasion, the fuel line will be replaced. Owner notification began august 12, 2002.
