Description (français)

Les canalisations de carburant du compartiment moteur peuvent avoir été déformées pendant le montage du véhicule et elles peuvent toucher le cardan de la colonne de direction. Si cela se produit, la paroi de la canalisation peut s'user, entraînant une fuite d'essence, et, en présence d'une source d'allumage, causer un incendie.
