Defect

On certain vehicles equipped with 1.8l turbo, 2.8l v6, or 3.0l engines, a change in the electrical motor components in the fuel pump can lead to an inoperative fuel pump and, ultimately, stoppage of fuel supply to the engine causing it to stall.

Safety risk

If fuel flow to the engine is interrupted, the vehicle could stall without warning and thus present a potential risk of crash.
