Agility Fuel Solutions is recalling certain CNG pressure relief devices that may fail to vent when exposed to heat, potentially causing the fuel system to rupture.

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).

The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (fuel system rupture) with an explicit statement of increased risk of injury, meeting the criteria for a Severe rating.

Plain-English summary

Agility Fuel Solutions is recalling certain Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Pressure Relief Devices, CNG Valves, and CNG Fuel Systems that include an EMER pressure relief device. The recall involves thermally activated pressure relief devices (PRDs) installed on CNG fuel systems.

The defect is that these pressure relief devices may not vent the system when exposed to heat. If the fuel system ruptures due to heat exposure, there is an increased risk of injury.

Agility will work with Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and distributors to notify customers and replace the pressure relief devices free of charge. The recall began on April 28, 2020. Owners may contact Agility customer service at 1-949-267-7745 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
