Defect
Certain vehicles may have been built with incorrect routing of the fuel line which runs from the fuel filter outlet to the engine fuel pump. This fuel line can potentially rub on the plastic conduit of the main cab power harness causing it to blow the main power fuse and potentially stopping the engine. To rectify this concern, the nominated fuel line will be relocated away from this area. 273 vehicles could possibly be affected by this concern.
