The problem
THE FLEXIBLE OIL HOSES FOR THE ENGINE OIL RADIATOR COULD LEAK ENGINE OIL DUE TO INSUFFICIENT CLAMPING OF THE METAL CONNECTORS TO FLEXIBLE PORTION OF OIL HOSE. CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT: LACK OF LUBRICATION COULD CAUSE SEVERE ENGINE DAMAGE; OIL LEAKAGE COULD RESULT IN AN ENGINE FIRE.
What owners should do
REPLACE LOWER AND UPPER HOSES CONNECTING ENGINE OIL RADIATOR WITH IMPROVED HOSES. ALSO, UPDATE OIL PRESSURE REGULATING VALVE ASSEMBLY.
