What's wrong?
The CNG fuel system on the 2013 Imt Container Delivery Truck stores compressed natural gas and sends it through high-pressure hoses to the engine fuel system. These hoses are flexible stainless-steel sleeved lines, built to carry fuel under pressure while the truck moves, vibrates, and operates in wet or salty conditions.
On the recalled vehicle, the hose material is exposed to water and road salt that attack the stainless-steel braid. Corrosion weakens the hose sleeve and high-pressure fuel line, creating a path for compressed natural gas to escape after fueling or during operation.
An owner or technician can notice the early stage of a leak with a combustible gas detector, leak-testing solution, or the smell of gas. These signs are most often noticed after fueling, so treat any gas odor as a warning sign and have the CNG hose inspected before the truck returns to service.

What's the safety risk?
A corroded fuel hose can leak CNG. If gas reaches an ignition source, fire risk increases. Treat a CNG smell after fueling, or a leak found with a combustible gas detector or leak testing solution, as a reason to stop operating the truck and arrange service. Repair is free at any franchised Imt dealer.
