On 2011 and later models, a lifetime in-tank fuel filter is installed and is only serviced as part of the fuel pump module. The fuel filter is mounted under the vehicle on the left side, in front of the gas tank. It is mounted under a cover on the left side, in front of the gas tank. To service it, first relieve the fuel system pressure, then disconnect the cable from the negative terminal of the battery. If necessary, raise the vehicle and support it securely on jack stands. Inspect the fittings at both ends of the filter to see if they're clean. If more than a light coating of dust is present, clean the fittings before proceeding. Release the clips holding the fuel lines to the filter. Detach the fuel hoses, one at a time, from the filter. Be prepared for fuel spillage. After the lines are detached, check the fittings for damage and distortion. If they were damaged in any way during removal, new ones must be used when the lines are reattached to the new filter. If new clips are packaged with the filter, be sure to use them in place of the originals. Remove the fuel filter from the mounting bracket, while noting the direction the fuel filter is installed. Install the new filter in the same direction. Carefully push each hose onto the filter until it's seated against the collar on the fitting. Make sure the clips are securely attached to the hose fittings - if they come off, the hoses could back off the filter and a fire could result! Start the engine and check for fuel leaks.

After installing the new filter, the engine should be started and checked for fuel leaks.

Disconnect the push-connect fittings from the filter. Refer to Chapter 4 for detailed instructions. Note that on some models, you may first have to remove several bolts and a shield protecting the filter.
