Toyota Camry V6 fuel line may leak gasoline

NHTSA campaign 18V108000 · Reported 2018-02-14 · Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing

critical How serious is it? About this label

This is a fire risk, which makes it one of the more serious kinds of recall; the notice does not tell owners to stop driving, but get it checked right away and take a fuel smell seriously.

What's wrong, in plain English

On some V6 Camrys, the metal pipes that carry gasoline to the engine may not have been joined tightly to the fuel hoses under the hood. A loose connection can let gasoline leak out. Gasoline that leaks near anything hot or sparking can catch fire. The dealer will check that the fuel pipes are connected correctly and fix any that are not, at no cost to you.

What you should do

1. Enter your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm your Camry is included. 2. Call your Toyota dealer, or Toyota customer service at 1-888-270-9371, and ask for recall J0G. 3. Have the fuel pipes inspected and corrected — the repair is free.
