What NHTSA recorded

Vehicle description: class 'b' motor homes built on dodge 1500, 2500 and 3500 van chassis. The fuelvent hose from the fuel tank to the fuel fill entry may not be vapor tight due to over tightening of the gear clamp at the connection of the plastic vent tank outage to the rubber vent hose. This can result in fuel or fuel vapor leaking.

Possible consequence

This condition can cause fuel or fuel vapor leaking resulting in a potential fire hazard. Also the engine could stall from lack of fuel, resulting in loss of power braking and power steering control.

Remedy

Dealers will remove the gear clamp securing the rubber vent hose to the plastic vent tube, install a rigid insert tube into the plastic vent tube, and reattach the hose and clamp. The riberglass cover in the running board storage compartment must first be removed for access.
