The issue

On certain vehicles, a fuel tank filler pipe grommet could have been damaged during the installation of the bi-fuel system. If the grommet is damaged, fuel could leak. Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire. Correction: Dealers will replace the fuel tank filler pipe grommet.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, il se peut que certaines rondelles de tuyau de remplissage du réservoir d'essence aient été endommagées pendant l'installation du système bi-carburant. Si la rondelle est endommagée, du carburant peut s'échapper et, en présence d'une source d'allumage, représenter un risque d'incendie. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer les rondelles du tuyau de remplissage du réservoir de carburant.
