Reasons for This Program

Refunds
When all or a portion of the repair covered by the program is paid by the owner and/or the dealer prior to the release of the program, both the owner and/or dealer are eligible for a refund.

Service Action
Cars returned for service under this program will have the fuel pump assembly replaced.
