Fuel Tank Pressure Release Valve: Recalls
Recall 99V345000: Fuel Tank Relief Valve Defective

Vehicle Description: Passenger vehicles. 

Fuel tank assemblies in these vehicles have an Over Pressure Relief (OPR) valve that can become stuck open in a frontal collision. If the vehicle rolls
over, fuel spillage could occur. If an ignition source is present, a fire could result.

Dealers will permanently seal the outlet port of the OPR valve.

Owner notification is expected to begin during December 1999. 

Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time
should contact Saturn at 1-800-553-6000, prompt # 3. Also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Auto Safety Hotline at
1-888-DASH-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
