What NHTSA recorded

Vehicles are subject to excessive underhood temperatures and fuel system pressures in severe duty applications.

Possible consequence

This creates potential for fuel expulsion from the fuelfiller pipe which in the presence of an ignition source, could result in afire.

Remedy

Install modification kits to minimize possibility of fuel expulsion and to shield underbody components from exhaust system heat.
