What NHTSA recorded

The filler caps which have relief pressure valves incorporated may allow pressure build-up in the gas tank. This pressure may be greater than the closing pressure of the float valve in the carburetor, which could cause overflooding.

Remedy

Dealer will modify the gas cap to prevent pressure build-up, at no cost to the owner.
