The problem
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: LIGHT DUTY PASSENGER VANS AND STRIPPED CHASSIS. THERE IS INTERFERENCE BETWEEN THE PARKING BRAKE CABLE AND THE FUEL LINE WHICH, OVER TIME, CAN RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE FUEL LINE CAUSING FUEL LEAKAGE.
Risk
IF THERE IS FUEL LEAKAGE IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE, FIRE COULD RESULT.
What owners should do
DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE FUEL SUPPLY LINE. IN ADDITION, A PIECE OF ANTI-ABRASION INSULATION WILL BE INSTALLED TO PREVENT ABRASION OF THE FUEL LINE.
