DEFECT #2 - ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL

Posted on: 2008-10-01
Description
Fleetwood is recalling 1,583 my 2008-2009 jamboree, jamboree sport, jamboree gt, and tioga, tioga ranger, and tioga sl class c motor homes built on a ford e450 chassis.  A section of hard plastic evaporative emission line near the evap system canister may be kinked and completely restricted.  This may affect a pressure increase in the evap lines and fuel tank in high ambient temperatures, causing a release of excess vapors when the gas cap is removed.

Consequence
Under certain conditions, excess vapors and fuel may be sprayed from the fuel cap possibly resulting in personal injury.

Corrective Action
Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the kinked evaporative line.  The recall is expected to begin during february 2009.  Owners may contact fleetwood at 1-800-509-3418.
