An official Health Canada notice concerns Mitsubishi. Certain vehicles, operated in areas where road salts are frequently used in winter, may be exposed to road debris (mud) mixed with road salt. This material can become trapped between a reinforcing bracket and the fuel filler pipe, potentially causing corrosion. Over time, corrosion could create a leak in the fuel filler pipe that could result in fuel leakage when fueling the vehicle. This situation may result in a fire causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the fuel filler pipe and associated parts with new, improved parts. Note: This recall is superseded by recall 2011012. Published 2011-02-14.
