What NHTSA recorded
The involved vehicles fail to conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 301, "fuel system integrity". In a 30 m.p.h. Frontal crash barrier test, the fuel line broke, allowing excessive fuel leakage due to dislocation of the safety switch which failed to shut off the fuel pump as intended.
Remedy
The dealer will install a new fuel pump relay sensing unit, free of charge.
