If the VIN is not covered or symptoms remain after recall completion, preserve codes and test fuel pressure, electrical supply and engine controls before assigning a component. Do not buy a fuel pump, control module or wiring repair from this page; recall eligibility and the actual failed path must be confirmed first.
