FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

Fuel lines on right hand side of engine bay (when viewed from front of vehicle) show signs of wear due to contact with other components. I am unsure what components exactly, but wear significant enough to cause material removal from EPDM fuel line outer sleeve.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

Fuel lines in the engine bay are rubbing against the hood insulation and wearing down. The first generation GR86 fuel lines had sleeves compared to the second generation..

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

Fuel line is rubbing under the hood. I have seen where this is the cause of fires so I went to check mine and it has been rubbing.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

There seems to be wear in the fuel lines under the hood. Possibly caused from rubbing against something.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

There are two fuel lines on each side of the engine bay, driver and passenger going into the injector rails. One of the fuel lines on the driver side is rubbing on the underside of the hood, when closed, causing marks, and potentially a burst on a fuel lines, causing fires. The fuel line on my car has rub marks, and visually “wearing it down”. No bursts, yet. There has been about 10-15 cases of GR86/BRZ (essentially the same car), with fires starting randomly from the engine bay on the driver side, rising the chances of this being a reality, and a VERY SERIOUS issue with these cars. And with this issue arising from FB groups, many other owners have come forward and confirmed the same rubbing marks on the same fuel line, or even in both on the same side instead of just the one.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

1. The problem is the alleged “rubbing” of the fuel lines I have encountered among the other GR86 owners that are having the same issue. 2. Could possibly cause a fire while operating the vehicle as it has allegedly been the cause of a few already. 3. No. 4. No. 5. No since it is a hose issue.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

Myself and others online have noticed unusual wear on fuel lines located in the engine bay. There are 3 fuel lines on the right side of the engine bay to the right of the intake manifold that can become chafed. Because these are fuel lines I find the fact that they have wear to be very concerning and a potential fire hazard

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

I discovered what appears to be severe rubbing on one of the fuel lines in my 2024 Toyota GR86. The car has just over 6,000 miles on it, and the rubbing is so severe that it has removed the printed writing on the line and smoothed out the hose to the point where it is flat. From what I can tell, the hose is rubbing against another fuel line, which must occur while the engine is running. Considering the car was manufactured in September 2024, I find this to be not only unacceptable but dangerous. If I had not caught this, it would have easily rubbed through and resulted in an engine fire, which could have resulted in the total loss of the vehicle. While reviewing my vehicle, I also noticed that a friend with a 2023 Subaru BRZ had the same issue. While his rubbing was not as severe, it is clear this is not an isolated incident and affects others. I am in the process of gathering photographic evidence from others who are impacted and so far know of at least two more cases beyond the above: a 2023 Toyota GR86 and a 2024 Subaru BRZ. I will be contacting Toyota and Subaru directly; however, given the potential severity and danger of this issue, I believe it needs to be addressed immediately.
