Defect

In compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) vehicles, a carbonized film may form on the contact points of the relay that operates the gas shutoff valve, increasing electrical resistance. As a result, the gas shutoff valve may fail to open. In the worst case, the engine may stall while driving and be unable to restart.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the relay with a corrected part.
