On certain vehicles, the fuel supply line may leak due to chafing with the intake manifold and/or the fuel return line may lead due to chafing with a spring band clamp used to secure a coolant line. A fuel leak, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire. Correction: All affected vehicles will have a protective sheath installed on the fuel supply line. Also, on certain vehicles, the spring band clamp will be replaced with a screw type hose clamp and installed in such a way that it can not come into contact with the fuel return line.
