What NHTSA recorded

If the plastic coating of the fuel filler and/or breather pipe is damaged, salt water may accumulate between the plastic coating and the steel pipes, and the accumulation could cause corrosion which would eventually rust through the affected pipes, allowing gasoline fumes and fuel to leak.

Possible consequence

Gasoline fumes and/or fuel leakage through the filler orbreather pipes could result in a fire when exposed to a source of ignition.

Remedy

Repairs will be made to vehicles with corroded filler or breather pipes.
