What can go wrong

It is possible that due to cleaning process of the fuel tank water may have built up between the fuel pump and wiring harness connectors which can cause corrosion of the connector pins. In the extreme cases corrosion could result in an inoperative fuel pump which could cause the engine to stall or the inability to start.

The fix

Recall all affected vehicles and inspect the connectors for corrosion. If corrosion or damage is found a short section of the wiring harness and fuel pump top section will be replaced.

Is a specific car affected? A recall lists models and build dates, not individual vehicles, so these pages cannot tell you whether one car is included. Enter the registration on the DVSA vehicle recall checker on GOV.UK, or give the vehicle identification number (VIN) to the manufacturer or one of its dealers. Buying used? Ask the seller for proof that any recall work was done.
