| Defect Summary : On certain passenger vehicles, the fuel hose connection for the outlet of the fuel pump which is located at the top of the fuel tank may not have been properly attached when the vehicle was assembled and could come loose while driving or when starting the engine. |
Consequence Summary: If the connection comes loose while driving, the engine will stop running due to lack of fuel, increasing the risk of a crash. also, if the connection comes loose while driving or attempting to start or restart the engine, some fuel will discharge from the fuel pump. if this should occur in the presence of an external ignition source, a fire could result. |
