GDI Recall for Fuel Pressure Regulator

[tommydbouy]

I got this recall letter a couple days ago. Pretty serious wording. It looks to me that this would be a lot of boats. Luckily Boat House Marine was able to get me in today for same day turnaround.

I find it interesting the letter is dated 3-15 and it was sent by certified mail. The letter was postmarked 4-2 but I didn't get till 4-13. If you have a GDI engine that was built from Oct 2018 to Nov 2020 you should give your dealer a call.

Same here, same observations. Bummer, I wish this letter came in February and not when it finally warmed up. How accessible is the fuel pump?

My dealer had it in stock for same day turn around. The letter claims the dealers should have the parts in stock.

Yep I got my letter last week. My dealer already had me on the list when I called them. They also said if I needed to get on the water they would get me in and out same day. I think these things they will push others out of the way to get them done.

Big shoutout to Hans and his crew at Hans’ Boat Works. We were on the list as well. Got us in and out in an hour! No lost time on the water. Thanks for everything you do for us.

Just found out two of our friends, who bought their boats from Hans also got the recall notice as well. Hans dispatched a mechanic to do the swap in their driveway at their lake homes......120 MILES ONE WAY!

It has been said many times....your dealer matters.

Ya, dealers should have pretty good stock on the parts. It's a pretty easy recall. Takes an hour to complete. We have done a few of them already.

I also found a couple posts on the Mastercraft Facebook pages. Some dealers are even driving customers to do the recall. It didn't even occur to me to request that.

Yup, I got the letter (and wondered about the date, post marked date, delivery date, etc).

Mine goes in next week for this and a handful of other warranty items.

Also a shoutout to Ryan and the great crew at Northwest Boat Sports! About two weeks ago we got our boat back from storage which they delivered to our house (stored with them)! They're about 40mins without traffic, such a good service.

Anyway, I was a bit bummed to get the recall letter knowing I was going to have to make a trip back to see them. I called to schedule the service, surprise, they let me know they already did the service before dropping off the boat two weeks ago! As said above, dealers matter and these guys are the nines!

I'll add an attaboy to Skier's Marine in Gainesville (Atlanta area). Nice work by a great crew. In and out quickly.

So anyone else having issues getting this done?

I made my appointment a month ago with the local dealer. The dealer set aside a kit for my boat. I called yesterday to confirm all was good as I have to drive over the day before to lake house to get the boat. They confirmed yesterday all is good. Dealer just called to say they put my kit in another boat, they have no more, and they cannot get any more from Mastercraft.

I guess this is not as big a priority as the letter stated....

I just got it done on Friday last week. Came to my driveway, uncovered the boat, did it, then covered it back up.


There is a large backorder on these right now from what I know. No one can get them.

Yep, I talked to a few other dealers. It appears MC issued a nationwide recall and had no where near enough parts to fix them all. All dealers I talked to are out of the kit with no ETA on additional kits.

440 you have a kit in stock? I can get a dealer to do the work if I can find a kit.

Ski n Sports over in Rogers Ar did mine before I picked up the boat. I think this was the third week in April. I bet you checked with them already!

Ha, I was about to send you a PM to make sure it was done to your X Star. I'm calling them in the morning.
