What NHTSA recorded

Fuel leaks could develop in either of two connections in a fuel supply line. One connection under the vehicle may have been damaged or improperly installed. The other suspect part is in the engine compartment and contains a pressure relief valve.

Remedy

The dealer will install a revised design fuel line valve assembly with new hose clamps and replace the fuel supply hose clamp, if it is damaged or incorrect. Notification was made to dealers prior to any recorded vehicle sales, and vehicles should have been corrected before final delivery.
