1986 Volkswagen Vanagon Recalls

The 1986 Volkswagen Vanagon has 3 recalls, all involving the fuel system, with the most serious being two separate fire risks: fuel can seep from a poorly seated filler neck or damaged tank gasket on Synchro models, and a separate inline fuel filter can leak at its casing seam and ignite near any heat source.

The third recall affects both standard Vanagon and Synchro models: during hot weather, vapor can build up and become trapped in a fuel filter mounted inside the tank, restricting fuel flow enough to stall the engine.
