Plain-English summary

Agility Fuel Systems is recalling certain Roofmount CNG Fuel Systems, EZ Pack Heil Tailgate CNG Fuel Systems, Side-Mount CNG Fuel Systems, and Heil Roofmount CNG Fuel Systems. These units were manufactured between January 1, 2013, and December 31, 2014. The recall involves 1,695 affected vehicles.

The affected fuel systems contain flexible stainless steel, sleeved, high-pressure hoses that may corrode when exposed to environmental conditions such as water mixed with road salt. This corrosion can result in a compressed natural gas (CNG) leak, which may increase the risk of a fire if an ignition source is present.

Agility will notify owners, and dealers will replace the hose assemblies free of charge. The recall began on February 2, 2017. Owners may contact Agility customer service at 1-949-267-7745 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
