Defect
On compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles, the fuel shutoff valve that stops fuel supply has insufficient sealing, causing gas to leak when the engine is off. Continued use allows gas to enter the passenger compartment through the intake manifold. In the worst case, an open flame inside the cabin may ignite the accumulated gas, resulting in a vehicle fire.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the fuel shutoff valve with a corrected part.
