What Happened

Risk if Unfixed
If the fuel pump isn't working properly, your engine could stall while you're driving, which increases the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your dealer will update the engine control computer and replace the fuel pump with a new one, if needed, at no cost to you. You'll get a notification after confirming availability with your dealer, and you should schedule the repair as after confirming availability with your dealer as you can.
