Toyota () Verso: Fuel May Leak

Toyota Verso vehicles may have a fuel leak due to inadequate resin molding around the fuel filter water sensor, which can cause fuel to seep out through the sensor's breather hole in cold temperatures. About 1,009 vehicles are affected in the United Kingdom. Toyota will inspect and replace the filter if necessary, and update maintenance information.
