Certain vehicles may experience fuel leakage or engine stall due to a broken control valve in the fuel tank assembly. Engine stalling would result in lost vehicle propulsion which, in conjunction with traffic and road conditions, and the driveru2019s reactions, could increase the risk of a crash. Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire. These issues could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect the control valve in the fuel tank. If the control valve is damaged, the fuel tank assembly and vapour canister will be replaced.
