What is wrong
On certain vehicles, an engine mounted oil feed pipe may rupture, causing an oil leak. Oil may contact a hot engine or exhaust component, which could result in a fire. As well, engine oil spilt on the roadway could endanger other road users by making the roadway unexpectedly slippery. These issues could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the engine oil feed pipe with an updated design.
