Fuel Filler Hose Recall

I did a search and did not find this.

Anyone else get a recall on some 2003-2006 Infiniti vehicles?

The fuel filler hose may creack and result in a fuel leakage from the hose while refueling.

recall

I received my notice today. I have an 03.5 but the document says it relates to some 2003-2006 model year Infiniti vehicles. It says it takes approximately 3 hours to complete but the dealer may need the vehicle for a longer period of time based upon their work schedule.

Took my 2005 6mt sedan in for the filler neck problem and it has been less than a week and went to put gas in for the first time since service and it is still doing it so I'll make another appt and take it back in. What kind of problems would I have to have to return the car under the lemon law and how many times does it have to happen??

Guys, these are evaporative lines. No liquid fuel runs through them. It does take about 2 - 3 hours to do - it requires dropping the entire rearend of the car, pumpkin, springs, and all. Three hoses are replaced.

This recall is not the same as, "Not being able to top off the tank" problems.

This issue is not related to the recall.

Nope, but there should be no issues. Let the dealer be aware what you've got done to the car - only pertaining to the fuel system. But remember, the recall only has to do with EVAPORATIVE lines - not any lines that fuel actually flows through. My car is supecharged and they didn't say a word about it except that they liked it. The biggest worry you will have is if someone decides to take it for a joy ride

I would stay at the dealer while they perform your recall.

I was unaware of the hose recall till I took my 04 sdn in for squeaky brakes and window rattle. The fuel hose ITB06-00-R0508 fix requires major rear suspension removal. I asked if it had anything to do w/ the just required E10 fuel that we have in Hawaii. They claim not.
