Recall 94V-014: 1994 Chevrolet S10, 1994 GMC S15

The problem

The fuel tank filler pipes were not manufactured to specification which caused loss of fuel between the fuel tank filler pipe and the vent tube during a test. The loss of fuel was in excess of the amount permitted by FMVSS no. 301, "fuel system integrity."

The risk

Consequence of non-compliance: if a vehicle crash were to occur, it may cause the joint between the fuel tank filler pipes and the vent tube to crack. If the vehicle overturned, fuel leakage would occur, which could result in a post-crash fire.

The fix

Dealers will replace the fuel filler pipe on these vehicles.
