The problem
Porsche is recalling certain model year 2012 911 carrera s vehicles manufactured from October 26, 2011, through January 24, 2012. Interference between a coolant line and a fuel line May cause the fuel line to become disconnected at the quick connector.
The risk
If the fuel line becomes disconnected, a fuel leak May occur. A fuel leak could lead to the engine misfiring or stalling, increasing the risk of a crash. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source could increase the risk of a fire.
The fix
Porsche will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel line with a new fuel line, free of charge. The safety recall began on April 26, 2012. Owners May contact Porsche at 1-800-767-7243.
