Issue ID	1670341
Internal NHTSA #	11331195
Manufacurer	Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
Brand	VOLKSWAGEN
Model	R32
Model Year	2008
File date	27/06/20
Component	FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	When certain driving conditions are accompanied by high ambient temperatures, the fuel tank ventilation valve may not remain fully closed. If this happens, liquid fuel may enter the fuel tank venting system and migrate into the evaporative system, saturating the carbon canister. Should this occur while driving, the vehicle may experience performance issues (i. E., vehicle jerking) and the malfunction indicator lamp (mil) in the instrument cluster could illuminate. Fuel could leak from the evaporative system leak detection pump filter. Consequence a fuel leak, in the presence of an ignition source, could lead to a vehicle fire.
