Problem: Fleetwood is recalling 1,583 my 2008-2009 jamboree, jamboree sport, jamboree gt, and tioga, tioga ranger, and tioga sl class c motor homes built on a ford e450 chassis. A section of hard plastic evaporative emission line near the evap system canister may be kinked and completely restricted. This may affect a pressure increase in the evap lines and fuel tank in high ambient temperatures, causing a release of excess vapors when the gas cap is removed.
