ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES AND LIMOUSINES, THE FUEL FEED LINE QUICK CONNECTOR MAY DISENGAGE, ALLOWING FUEL LEAKAGE.
Risk: FUEL LEAKAGE IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE COULD RESULT IN A FIRE.

ON CERTAIN PASSENGER AND LIMOUSINE VEHICLES, CONTACT CAN OCCUR BETWEEN A BRAKE PIPE OR FUEL PIPE AND THE ANTILOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS) MODULATOR PUMP. SHOULD THIS HAPPEN, IT COULD RESULT IN EVENTUAL ABRASIVE DAMAGE TO EITHER PIPE, LEADING TO POSSIBLE LEAKAGE.
Risk: THIS COULD AFFECT THE STOPPING DISTANCE WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH, OR A FIRE COULD RESULT IF THERE IS LEAKAGE FROM THE FUEL LINE.

THE FLEXIBLE HOSE CARRYING CENTRAL HYDRAULIC SYSTEM FLUID BETWEEN THE REGULATOR AND THE ACCUMULATOR COULD LEAK.

Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE HOSE. OWNER NOTIFICATION IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN APRIL 7, 2003. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT BENTLEY AT 1-800-777-6923.
On certain vehicles, the potential exists, following disconnection, for the quick connector not to be fully re-engaged. This would eventually result in a loss of fuel that, in the presence of an ignition sources, creates a risk of a vehicle fire. Disconnection is a requirement for some service operations. Correction: Dealer will remove the quick release collar, ensure full engagement and fit a safety clip.
On certain vehicles, the fuel pipe in the engine compartment may be out of position. This could cause a foul with either an adjacent brake pipe or modulator pump, which could result in eventual abrasive damage to either pipe and possible leakage. Correction: Dealer will reposition and replace affected components as required.
On certain vehicles, the flexible hose carrying central hydraulic system (CHS) fluid between the regulator and the accumulator could leak. Leaking CHS fluid could deplete the reservoir and in an extreme case, cause a loss of power assist to the steering and brake systems. Correction: Dealer will replace the CHS fluid hose.
