Defect
In the fuel tank breather hose—which vents air from the tank during refueling—an incorrect hose material allows heat from the exhaust system to degrade the hose and cause cracks to develop. Continued use allows the cracks to progress, resulting in a fuel leak. In the worst case, a vehicle fire may occur.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the breather hose with a corrected part.
