Bosch recall: Fuel system, gasoline
What is wrong
Various vehicle manufacturers are recalling vehicles that were built with certain Bosch Fuel Delivery Modules manufactured September 9, 2013, to April 16, 2014. Improper nickel plating of components within the fuel pump may result in the fuel pump failing.
What could happen
If the fuel pump fails, the vehicle will not start, or if the engine is running, it will stop and the vehicle will stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Bosch has notified the vehicle manufacturers that purchased the pumps. Owners of all vehicles in which a defective fuel pump was installed will be notified by their respective vehicle manufacturers and the pumps will be replaced, free of charge. Owners may contact their vehicle manufacturer for more information.
