Defect
In the impeller (resin impeller) of replacement low-pressure fuel pumps, improper molding conditions result in low resin density. This causes the impeller to swell and deform when exposed to fuel. The deformed impeller contacts the pump cover, causing the fuel pump to malfunction, and in the worst case, an engine stall may occur while driving.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the low-pressure fuel pump with the corrected/revised part.

状況
交換修理用部品の低圧燃料ポンプのインペラ（樹脂製羽根車）において、成形条件が不適切なため、樹脂密度が低くなって、燃料により膨潤して変形することがある。そのため、インペラがポンプカバーと接触して燃料ポンプが作動不良となり、最悪の場合、走行中エンストに至るおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、低圧燃料ポンプを対策品と交換する。
