## What is wrong

Spartan Fire, LLC is recalling certain 2017\-2020 Gladiator and MetroStar vehicles.  The sealing washer may not seat correctly in the pilot bore holes, allowing the high pressure fuel rail assembly to leak.


## What can happen

A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.


## The remedy

Dealers will inspect the rail threads and fuel lines, and replace the rail as necessary, free of charge.   The manufacturer has not yet provided a schedule for recall notification.  Owners may contact Spartan Fire customer service at 1\-517\-543\-6400.
