The ministry said there may be a defect in the shape of the tube that connects the engine to the fuel system. Vibrations when a vehicle is driven can cause the tube to disconnect causing fuel leaks and engine failure. In the worst case, it could lead to fire.
Eleven cases of defects were reported between June 2011 and September this year.
