Jeep Grand Cherokee: Fuel System
Affects Jeep Grand Cherokee · 2002 — about 2K vehicles.
The hazard
Certain sport utility vehicles. The onboard vapor recovery system vent hose may have been misrouted. This could allow water to enter the canister, which can cause fuel to spill out of the filler tube when refueling the tank. Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire. Correction: dealers will inspect (and reposition as necessary) the vent hose. If the vent hose is found in the bent down position, and the vehicle has been driven more than 30 kilometers, the canister assembly will be replaced.
