What the ministry says is wrong
燃料パイプの形状が不適切なため、燃料ポンプの吐出口に押す力が加わっているものがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると燃料ポンプの樹脂パイプ部に亀裂が発生し、燃料が漏れるおそれがある。What is to be done about it
全車両、燃料パイプの固定位置を調整しケーブルバインダーで固定する。また、燃料漏れがあるものは燃料ポンプを新品と交換する。The two passages above are quoted in Japanese because that is the language the ministry published them in. This site keeps the wording a register had when it was read, and does not translate a safety notice.
