NHTSA campaign 22V020, reported January 20, 2022, 29 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Certain diesel engines in these emergency vehicles have fuel tubes between the fuel rail and the injectors for cylinders four, five, and six that may fatigue and crack. A crack can cause a high-pressure fuel leak.

A high-pressure fuel leak near an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire. Owners should take this recall seriously and have their vehicle checked promptly.

The repair is free at an authorized dealer. Dealers will install vibration isolators on the fuel tubes if the engine has 75 miles or less, or replace the fuel tubes with new ones that include vibration isolators if the engine has more than 75 miles. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed January 31, 2022. You can also contact Ferrara customer service at 1-800-443-9006, and check your VIN for open recalls.
