Defect
In the evaporative emission control system, the resin end of the evaporative gas passage has insufficient strength. Contact with acidic substances can cause a crack to form in the resin end. With continued use, the crack propagates and may allow fuel to leak when the tank is full.

On all vehicles, replace the evaporative emission control system with a corrected part.
