What NHTSA recorded
Fuel hoses may be incorrectly positioned and contact the right front drive axle boot during vehicle operation. After a period of time, the rotating boot could wear a hole in the fuel hose, resulting in fule leakage.
Remedy
If proper clearance is not present, the metal fuel pipe will be reformed upwards to correct the problem, without charge to owner.
