SUBJECT: SAFETY RECALL NOTICE – Roush Performance Products 2018 Mustang Supercharger Kit Part No. R1318-6006P1-AA Fuel Rail Subassembly
AFFECTED EQUIPMENT:
Roush Performance Products, Inc. (“Roush”) has determined that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain ROUSH 2018 Mustang Supercharger replacement equipment kits manufactured prior to April 23, 2018 that were sold for installation on MY 2018 Ford Mustangs.
REASON FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL:
The fuel rail subassemblies in the covered 2018 Supercharger kits were manufactured out of specification, and the fuel line hoses may be damaged where they attach to the fuel rail’s hose barb fitting. A damaged fuel line could leak, which may result in a fire.
REMEDIAL ACTION:
- For vehicles in which a Roush 2018 Supercharger kit has been installed, the remedy for this condition will consist of removing the existing fuel rail subassemblies and replacing them with new fuel rail subassemblies, at no charge to the vehicle owner. You should destroy the removed fuel rails and fuel hoses by cutting each in half. You should also provide Roush with photographic evidence of the destruction.
- For uninstalled kits in your possession, Roush will supply you with replacement fuel rail subassemblies at no cost to you. You do not have to destroy the removed fuel rail subassemblies. Rather, you should return those fuel rail subassemblies to Roush at Roush’s cost.
The initial replacement fuel rail subassemblies are anticipated to start becoming available during the week of May 29, 2018 with all estimated replacement deliveries culminating during the week of June 25, 2018.
IT IS A VIOLATION OF FEDERAL LAW TO SELL OR DELIVER A NEW OR USED SUPERCHARGER KIT COVERED BY THIS NOTIFICATION UNTIL THE DEFECT IS REMEDIED BY REPLACING THE DEFECTIVE FUEL RAIL ASSEMBLIES.
SOLD KITS:
For any vehicle(s) on which you installed a covered 2018 Supercharger kit and have not yet advised Roush of the vehicle identification number (VIN) of the vehicle(s) and the name and address of the current owner(s), please call Roush at 800-59-ROUSH (1-800-597-6874) and provide us with that information (if you know it) so we may contact them about this recall.
