Problem: On certain minivans (buick terraza, chevrolet uplander, and pontiac montana sv6) built on platforms by braun, a fuel hose can rupture allowing fuel to be pumped freely from the fuel tank and into the area underneath the driver's seating position.

Risk: This can cause unexpected vehicle deceleration or, in the presence of an ignition source, a fire.

Fix: Dealers will replace a short section of the fuel line hose with a similar fuel hose with a higher pressure rating. The recall began on february 22, 2006. Owners may contact braun at 1-800-946-7513.
