What NHTSA recorded

The carburetor fuel feed hose may not have been properly positioned during assembly. As a result the hose could come in contact with or be too close to the engine emission exhaust system gas recirculation valve. This can cause the hose to rupture.

Remedy

The dealer will inspect the fuel feed hose and reposition it, if necessary. Also, any damaged hose will be replaced.
