Defect
In the evaporative emission control system, the end geometry of the evaporative gas passage (resin) is improperly designed, causing cracks to develop at that end during use. Continued use allows the cracks to propagate through the passage wall, resulting in fuel leaking when the tank is full and producing a fuel odor.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the evaporative emission control system with a corrected part.
