The fuel filter in your vehicle is a crucial part that helps keep the fuel system working smoothly. Some aftermarket filters made by Purolator may not connect properly to the tube interface.
Risk if Unfixed
If the connection isn't secure, fuel could leak out, and if you're near an ignition source, it could catch fire.
Free Fix
Your dealer will replace the faulty fuel filter with a new one, free of charge. You should contact the manufacturer, UFI Filters USA, at 800-230-5876 to schedule the repair.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING

Manufacturer
SABERSPORT
What Happened
The corner and bumper lamp assemblies on your vehicle are the lights that illuminate when you turn on your headlights or taillights. In some aftermarket lamps sold for your vehicle, the amber side reflectors are missing.
Risk if Unfixed
Without the required amber side reflectors, your vehicle's lights may be harder to see from the side, which could increase your risk of being involved in a crash.
Free Fix
Your dealer will provide a full refund for the noncompliant lamp assemblies, or you can contact Sabersport directly at 1-909-598-7589 for more information.
