Additionally, a wiring harness can also wear through causing interruption to some electrical operations, including the fuel pump.
- Consequence
- Fuel leaking inside the engine compartment can result in a fire when exposed to a source of ignition. Failure of the electric fuel pump can cause poor performance and possible stalling creating a road hazard which can result in an accident.

Has your AM General been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A AM General dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
