The problem
Executive coach is recalling certain model year 2008-2011 Lincoln town car limousines. The fuel rail shield was left off during manufacturing. In a frontal impact the engine could potentially bend or rupture fuel lines if the replacement shield is not in place, causing those lines to leak fuel.
The risk
Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire.
The fix
Executive coach will supply kits and installation instructions to have vehicles repaired at a facility of the owner's choice. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on December 1, 2010. Owners May contact executive coach at 888-322-9272.
