What's wrong?
The filler fuel neck on the 2023 Jayco Fifth Wheel Seismic is the metal opening that guides fuel into the cargo fuel tank. The fuel cap closes that neck after fueling. When the cap tightens and seats correctly, the tank opening stays closed as the trailer moves.
On affected trailers, zinc plate buildup on the filler fuel neck changes the fit between the neck and the cap. The cap does not tighten down all the way, so it does not seat against the filler neck as designed. The problem is in the fit of the neck and cap, not in how the owner installs the cap.
The warning sign is direct: the fuel cap will not tighten down and seat to the filler fuel neck correctly. If the cap feels loose or keeps turning without seating, that is the condition described in recall 22V769.
