    • Recall Announced AUGUST 06 1998
    • NHTSA Reference #98V184000
    • Number Affected 722,600

    Summary: Vehicle description: Passenger vehicles built with 3.5L engines. The fuel injection delivery system can leak fuel from some of the sealing O-rings or from hair line cracks in the thermoset fuel injection rail.

    Consequence: Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source can result in a fire.
