2000 UD UD1800CS recall: fuel system
⚠️ What's wrong
Vehicle description: medium duty trucks. The fuel filter support bracket CAN crack and break due to vibration, which could allow the fuel filter to separate and lodge on top of the chassis frame.
💥 The risk
The fuel filter support bracket could then come in contact with the engine assembly.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace the fuel filter bracket with a redesigned fuel bracket to prevent cracking and breaking during normal vehicle operation.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
