REVISION SUMMARY

Under REPAIR PROCEDURE, steps 14, 16, 28, 29, 30, and 31 were revised.

 

BACKGROUND

Due to swelling of the fuel pump motor impeller, the fuel pump may seize and stop working. If this occurs, the check engine light may be displayed with DTC P0087 (Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low) stored, the engine may not start, or the engine could stall while driving, increasing the risk of a crash.

 

CLIENT NOTIFICATION

Owners of affected vehicles will be sent a notification of this campaign.

Do an iN VIN status inquiry to make sure the vehicle is shown as eligible.

Some vehicles affected by this campaign may be in your new or used vehicle inventory.

Failure to repair a vehicle subject to a recall or campaign may subject your dealership to claims or lawsuits from the client or anyone else harmed as a result of such failure. To see if a vehicle in inventory is affected by this safety recall, do a VIN status inquiry before selling it.

 

CORRECTIVE ACTION

Replace the fuel pump motor.

NOTE: If the vehicle has any of the symptoms listed in BACKGROUND, you must apply this bulletin before attempting any other repairs. If the symptoms remain after the recall repair is complete, only attempt further repairs (such as replacing the high pressure fuel pump) after authorized troubleshooting.

 

PARTS INFORMATION

NOTE: Due to limited supply, this is a controlled part and will require a valid VIN when ordering.
