Failure to inspect and if necessary repair fuel leaks after a collision may increase the risk of fire and serious injury.

Should your vehicle shut off after a collision, you may restart your vehicle by doing the following: 1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Turn the ignition on.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to re-enable fuel pump.
