What is wrong
FUEL SUPPLY TUBES INSTALLED IN THE AFFECTED VEHICLES ARE TOO SHORT. CONSEQUENTLY, FLEXIBLE HOSES THAT ATTACH TO THE TUBES MAY BE TAUT AND THIS WOULD HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE DURABILITY OF HOSE CONNECTIONS. IN THE EVENT OF HOSE SEPARATION, SOME FUEL SPILLAGE WOULD OCCUR.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
UPON INSPECTION, DEALER WILL INSTALL A NEW FUEL HOSE OF THE CORRECT LENGTH.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
