Description of Defect, how it came to light, and possible consequences if ignored. On the cars affected there is the potential for road salt to corrode the outer surface of the fuel filter. In extreme cases, this may lead to the filter housing becoming porous with a corresponding fuel leak.
Remedial Action The original equipment fuel filter must be replaced by one which is to a later design with a corrosion-resistant coating and the retaining clip must be re-orientated to prevent damage to that coating.
