FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY Recall for 2014 Mazda MAZDA6
Today I had the dealer complete this recall notice. I noticed a strong gas smell after the recall was completed. Drove for an hour back home. The smell is still there. Going to contact the service manager tomorrow to see why we would have this problem which is quite concerning.
Summary: Mazda North America Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain model year 2014 Mazda6 vehicles manufactured October 25, 2012, through May 9, 2013. In the affected vehicles, it is possible to fill the fuel tank beyond its rated capacity.
Consequence: If the tank is overfilled, gas may flow into the charcoal canister (an evaporative emissions component) and possibly leak from the canister's external vent, increasing the risk of a fire.
Fix: Mazda will notify owners and dealers will inspect and add an adapter to the shut off valve in the fuel tank and also inspect the charcoal canister for the presence of gasoline, replacing it as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on May 19, 2014. Owners may contact Mazda at 1-800-222-5500. Mazda's number for this recall is 7414D.
