THE FUELVENT HOSE FROM THE FUEL TANK TO THE FUEL FILL ENTRY MAY NOT BE VAPOR TIGHT DUE TO OVER TIGHTENING OF THE GEAR CLAMP AT THE CONNECTION OF THE PLASTIC VENT TANK OUTAGE TO THE RUBBER VENT HOSE.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
  • Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
  • This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
