The present invention relates to a vehicle component (1) for a motor vehicle (100) as well as a motor vehicle (100) with such a vehicle component (1). The vehicle component (1) comprises a coupling device (2) with two coupleable coupling elements (12, 22) for fuel-tight connection of two fuel-carrying lines (13, 23) and has at least one securing device (4) for securing the connected coupling elements (12, 22) against unintentional separation from one another. In this regard, one coupling element (12) is designed as a metallic female element (120) which can be permanently connected to one of the two lines (13, 23). The other coupling element (22) is designed as a metallic male element (220) which can be permanently connected to another of the two lines (13, 23) and which can be inserted into the female element (120) for coupling. In the coupled state, an axially extending overlap section (5) with at least one radial sealing device (6) is formed between the female element (120) and the male element (220).
