What NHTSA recorded
The fuel line may have been installed in a way such that the axle could contact the line and eventually cause the line to rupture, allowing fuel to leak to the ground.
Remedy
The dealer will remove the hose between the return check valve and fuel tank and install a longer hose of a preformed shape.
