The defect

The passenger compartment IS separated from the engine compartment by an insulated engine cover. The insulation inside this cover can rub against the fuel return hose resulting in a fuel leak. Additionally, a wiring harness can also wear through causing interruption to some electrical operations, including the fuel pump.

The risk

Fuel leaking inside the engine compartment can result in a fire when exposed to a source of ignition. Failure of the electric fuel pump can cause poor performance and possible stalling creating a road hazard which can result in an accident.

The remedy

Dealers will replace the rubber fuel line hose with a solid steel lines and route the line to provide one inch of clearance to the cover. Also, the wiring harness cover will be replaced and the wiring rerouted to gain sufficient clearance.
