For scale, 267 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles; the vehicles involved here were manufactured over a span of about 2 years and 8 months.
Defect
The check valve mounted on the engine fuel pump is subject to stress from fuel pipe assembly at its threaded joint.

On all vehicles, tighten the check valve to the specified torque.
