The hazard
On certain snowmobiles, fuel hoses located on the upper left-hand side of the airbox may have been incorrectly routed during vehicle assembly. As such, the fuel delivery line and the fuel return line could rub together during vehicle operation. The resultant chafe damage can eventually cause a fuel leak which, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, re-route the fuel lines.
