NHTSA Campaign 04E042000

FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:PRESSURE RELIEF DEVICES

Issued by NEXGEN FUELING · Reported Jun 2, 2004 · 1,509 vehicles affected

What's wrong

NEXGEN LIQUID NATURAL GAS (LNG) VEHICLE TANKS WITH SHROUD (TRUCK-STYLE TANKS) BUILT BEFORE FEBRUARY 1, 2004. INTRODUCTION OF WATER INTO THE DISCHARGE SIDE OF BOTH THE PRIMARY OR SECONDARY PRESSURE RELIEF VALVES SIMULTANEOUSLY AND SUBSEQUENT FREEZING IN SERVICE CAN RENDER THE VALVES TEMPORARILY INOPERABLE.

Consequence

THIS CONDITION CREATES THE RISK OF TANK OVER-PRESSURIZATION AND A POTENTIAL TANK RUPTURE, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

Remedy

NEXGEN HAS NOTIFIED THE ORIGINAL VEHICLE MANUFACTURERS WHO WILL NOTIFY THEIR CUSTOMERS AND CONDUCT THE RECALL REMEDY.
