The defect

In the subject vehicles, the fuel filter element installed on the engine may crack if the engine is started and stopped frequently as durability of the fuel filter element is not enough to endure changes in the fuel pressure.

The hazard

If continued to be used, the crack may propagate, causing the element to break, ultimately resulting in fuel leakage.

The remedy
