Defect
On the fuel tank, the specified tightening torque for the resin pump ring on the top surface of the tank was set incorrectly, reducing the structural strength of the pump ring on affected units. Continued use may cause the pump ring to crack and fuel to leak. In the worst case, a vehicle fire may result.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the pump ring assembly with a new unit and tighten to the correct torque specification.
