Issue

On certain vehicles, the underbody coating may have been incorrectly formulated and excessively applied during the vehicle assembly process. This can result in rigid, icicle-like formations of underbody coating hanging from the undercarriage of the vehicle, which could damage the fuel lines and cause a leak. Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, remove excessive underbody coating near the fuel lines.
