and not on an old VW


   NISSAN / SENTRA  2005
ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES, A VAPOR HOSE LOCATED IN THE FUEL TANK MAY
NOT HAVE BEEN FORMED CORRECTLY DURING THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS. WHEN THE
VEHICLE IS PARKED WITH A FULL FUEL TANK, FUEL MAY FLOW INTO THE VAPOR
HOSE, WHICH IS CONNECTED TO A VAPOR CANISTER.
Consequence:
 THE VAPOR CANISTER COULD BECOME FULL, AND EXCESS FUEL COULD SPILL OUT
ONTO THE GROUND. FUEL LEAKAGE, IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE,
COULD RESULT IN A FIRE.


ford recently had a fuel tank fuel line recall as well on their big pick ups.
