## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, improper nickel plating of certain fuel pump internal components could contaminate the pump, potentially resulting in an inoperative fuel pump.   This could result in a no\-start condition, or an engine stall without warning and without the ability to restart the vehicle, which could increase the risk of a crash.  Correction:  Dealers will replace the fuel pump.
