Fuel Shutoff
WARNING:
If your vehicle has been involved in a crash, have the fuel system checked. Failure to follow this instruction could result in fire, personal injury or death. |
Note:
When you try to restart your vehicle after a fuel shutoff, your vehicle makes sure that various systems are safe to restart.Once your vehicle determines that the systems are safe, your vehicle allows you to restart.

Should your vehicle shut off after a crash, you may restart your vehicle.
