RECALL: "fuel pipe crack"

I hope I'm not double posting, or if this was covered already. Apparently, there is a recall on the Evolution X's and the '09 Ralliart.

This was posted earlier...somewhere here, I don't remember the thread name.

But...we've already decided that we're all going to wait and see if our engine's catch fire. And if they do, we're going to get a 2010 Evo X group buy going.

Found it! Fuel System Recall?

^^^ Apparently just drive it around.

Oh, has to happen before the end of this month though. I think that's when dealers get the information about the recall...

Check the line, there should be 4 brackets on it. 3 on the front, 1 on the right side, I think most of us only have 2 right now.

Now that I think about it, I wont take the car 2 the dealer, until and unless they send me a notice... if they don't send that crap, I have all the excuses 2 burn it and get a replacement! (that'd be a lemon right?) but u can't get an Evo lol... it'd be the same car u bought... I'll make sure I take out all the mods and my wheels and the interior parts and my iPhone charger before it burns

Checked safercar.gov and there's another recall listed for: SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:SUPPLY:CHECK VALVE

The fuel pipe recall is only supposed to affect ~7k cars though, whereas the other one affects ~39k cars.
