RJ-1158-0

The fuel selector valve for the dual fuel tanks (saddleback shape) may resonate due to vehicle body vibration during travel when the remaining fuel amount is below 1/4, because the valve structure is improper. This could cause the seal to fail, which lets air mix into the fuel system, causing unstable engine operation. Note: This recall is only for 4WD vehicles with diesel engine.
