2015 VOLKSWAGEN GTITransport Canada Recall #2016430
Defect
On certain vehicles, the suction pump inside the fuel tank designed to purge fuel from the evaporative emissions (EVAP) system may be compromised. This could cause fuel to flow directly into the EVAP system which could, over time, accumulate and cause a leak through the charcoal canister filter element. Leaking fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could lead to a fire causing injury and/or damage to property.
Safety Risk
No risk description available.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the suction pump inside the fuel tank.
