On certain vehicles, un-fused power cables were fastened to a fuel return hose during vehicle assembly. Over time, these cables may chafe, wearing through the wire loom and eventually through the cable insulation and fuel line covering. This could cause a short circuit, which could result in a fire. Correction: Dealers will inspect the cable, and replace as necessary.
