2005–2006 Land Rover Discovery Lr3 Recall

Issued August 29, 2005
Issue
Hazard description
On certain vehicles, the fuel tank may have an internal breather pipe that was not made to specification. This may result in excessive swelling and cracking of a grommet and subsequent detachment of the breather pipe from a connector tube. When the fuel level in the tank is above the level of the detached joint, fuel may then enter the breather pipe. The vehicle may exhibit MIL illumination, fuel odour, driveability concerns such as hesitation, misfire, stalling, rough running or difficulty starting. If the amount of fuel flowing into the breather pipe reaches the vapour canister and exceeds its capacity, the excess fuel may be discharged onto the ground. Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, can result in a fire. Correction: Dealers will replace the fuel tank.
