What is wrong
Certain vehicles may not comply with CMVSS 1105 - evaporative emissions. The rear fuel lines may allow fuel to seep and evaporate at the metal line to nylon tube joint at the rear of the vehicle near the fuel filter. This may cause evaporative emissions in excess of the standard. Correction: Vehicle will be inspected for signs of fuel escaping a joint between a nylon tube and a metal fuel line. If wetness or fuel odor are detected a reinforcement kit will be installed.
