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.

Consequence

UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, EXCESS VAPORS AND FUEL MAY BE SPRAYED FROM THE FUEL CAP POSSIBLY RESULTING IN PERSONAL INJURY.
