What is wrong
On certain vehicles, the fuel lines can contact a rough edge on the transmission case, resulting in chaffed lines and fuel leakage.
The risk
Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire.
The fix
Dealers will reposition a clamp securing the fuel lines to the body reinforcement member. Owner notification is expected to begin during november 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 am general at 1-[removed].
Notes from the manufacturer
Also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-DOT (1-[removed]).
