What Happened
The clamp on your vehicle's gas tank is what keeps the fuel hose securely attached. In some cases, this clamp can become loose and come undone.
Risk if Unfixed
If the clamp separates, fuel can leak out of your tank, which can be a fire hazard and also waste fuel.
Free Fix
Your dealer will check the fuel hose clamp and tighten it if it's loose. If needed, they'll reposition the clamp to make sure it's secure – and this repair is completely free for you.
