    Default 2019 Fuel Pump Grommet Recall

    Hey all, got the call from my dealer that mine needed replaced due to possibility it may be defective. How many of you with 2019s have been affected?

    If you haven’t, I’d check with your dealer...huge possible safety issue (fuel dumping into bilge). I got the recall letter from Skier’s Choice today.

    Mine was affected. I got the call from my dealer on May 31st that I needed to bring it by for them look and see if it needed replacing. I took it by on the 1st and we pulled the floor and it turned out mine was affected so I left it with them and they had it replaced and back to me on the 5th of June.

    The recall is on a wide range of dates for the manufacturing of the fuel pump. Something like (Sept of 18 to May of 19) so a lot of 2019 boats will be affected. They have specific dates in those months but I don’t remember what they are so I don’t want to misquote. Your dealer will have to pull your floor up and look at the date that is on the sticker of the fuel pump. It is really quick to check.

    Exact same timing as me. I think Rinkers would have had it back sooner but the fuel pump manufacturer hadn’t even sent them the replacements yet.

    Interesting, I’m late to the party then. Dealer says they have the parts, since it’s a couple hours one way I’m hoping a tech can make the drive up to me this week. Don’t really want to have to tow it back and forth again.

    We’ve been using it until I got the call from my dealer, I haven’t smelled a leak but definitely going to keep it parked and not chance it.

    My 2019 was affected. dealer sent a tech to fix it on my dock. Great service, so i didn't have to tow it 2.5 hours. This is affecting other mfg's as well. Tige, and Malibu specifically.

    My buddy had the same recall on his 2019 Malibu MXZ22, so it’s not just Skier’s Choice that is affected. So all the people bitching about SC’s quality need to friggen chillax!!

    So true!! Even the recent Alternator issue those of us with 450s had was not SC fault at all. It really wasn't Indmar's fault either, it was their issue to deal with as it was their vendor that they purchase alternators from but that is about it.

    True story.

    That said, I don’t think that means SC (as the customer-facing entity) doesn’t have to step up to make it right though. Which it sounds like they are.

    OEM’s however own the end product despite a vendor quality or design issue.

    There is always a cost for quality.

    Standing behind products is what makes the difference.

    I don’t imagine the marine industry is much different automotive, OEM’s and suppliers are always searching for VEVA.
