What This Recall Means

Component

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS

What Happened
The fuel hoses in your vehicle are the tubes that carry gasoline from the tank to the engine. In some cases, these hoses can rub against the floor panel and leak fuel, which is a big problem because it can catch fire and cause an accident.
Risk if Unfixed
If the fuel hoses leak and there's a spark nearby, the fuel could ignite and cause a fire, which is a serious safety risk.
