DEFECT #1 - FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS


Posted on: 2002-12-20
Description
On certain supercharged vehicles, the fuel line crossover hose sits too close to the egr valve, causing the hose to become too hot and burn through, leaking fuel.  

Consequence
Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, can result in a fire.  

Corrective Action
Dealers will install a new bracket which will lower the hose and relocates it in a safe environment, away from the egr valve.  Owner notification is expected to begin during december 2002.  Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact saleen at 1-949-597-3837.  

Notes
Customers can also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-dot (1-888-327-4236).
