According to the recall notice, plastic fuel lines near metallic break lines may rub together causing damage to the fuel line. If this happens, owners may notice the smell of gas or leaking fuel near the right rear of the vehicle.
In documents shared with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), Toyota says that the fix will come in two phases.
First, dealerships will install protective materials and a clamp on the fuel tube as a temporary measure. Once an improved part is prepared, dealerships will replace the fuel tube with a newer version.
There is no estimated date for when the final fix will be available.
