Fuel system, gasoline › Storage › Tank assembly

Summary: Vehicle description: passenger vehicles equipped with 1.9L engines, built at the hermosillo assembly plant and originally sold or currently registered in arizona.

Consequence: Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source can result in a vehicle fire.
Remedy: Dealers will remove the heat shield attachments. This will not affect heat shield location or function, as the attachments are intended to keep the shield in place until the fuel tank is installed in the vehicle. After installation, the fuel tank straps retain the heat shield.
