## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, fuel may leak from the o\-ring seal into the internal vapour chamber located in the fuel tank at full tank conditions.  As a result, it may be difficult to fill the gas tank and/or fuel may leak from the evaporative air filter inlet.  Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire.  Correction: Kia Canada Inc. has corrected all affected vehicles prior to distribution to dealers.
