DEFECT #1 - FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY


Posted on: 2012-09-25
Description
The vehicle production group (vpg) is recalling certain model year 2011 and 2012 mv-1 vehicles, equipped with a compressed natural gas (cng) engine.  The pressure relief plug for the cng storage tank may be incorrectly assembled.

Consequence
If the plug is incorrectly assembled, it may inadvertently discharge the cng.  A cng leak in the presence of an ignition source may ignite and result in a vehicle fire.

Corrective Action
The vehicle production group will notify owners, and dealers will install a secondary pressure relief device on each vehicle to prevent leaking, free of charge.  The safety recall began on november 13, 2012.  Owners may contact the vehicle production group at 1-877-681-3678.
