What Happened
The fuel pump in your vehicle is the part that sends gasoline from the tank to your engine. In certain 2015-2018 models with a 3.5L V6 engine, dirty fuel can stick to the pump's internal parts, making it work less efficiently.
Risk if Unfixed
If the fuel pump isn't working well, your engine could suddenly stall while you're driving. This could make it hard to control your vehicle and increase the chance of a crash.
Free Fix
Your dealer will update the engine computer and replace the fuel pump, if needed, at no cost to you. The repair is free, and you should schedule it as soon as you get the recall notice.
