I HAVE A 2008 MONACO, ADMIRAL CLASS A MOTOR HOME ON A WORKHORSE CHASSIS. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON THE UN-USED GASOLINE TANK FILL PORT. THIS PORT ALLOWS THE MANUFACTURER TO HAVE THE FILL PORT ON EITHER SIDE. THE UNUSED FILL PORT WAS SEALED OFF WITH A SHORT LENGTH OF RADIATOR HOSE, WHICH WILL FAIL IN THE PRESENCE OF GASOLINE, AND A METRIC HOSE PLUG. BOTH WERE SEALED WITH PIPE CLAMPS. AFTER FILLING UP THE TANK IN TUSCON AZ, COSTCO WE WENT INTO THE STORE AND CAME OUT A FEW MINUTES LATER TO FIND A 1/8 OR BETTER STREAM OF GASOLINE COMING OUT OF THE SIDE OF THE TANK. WE IMMEDIATELY TURNED OFF THE PROPANE REFRIGERATOR AND WENT TO A SAFE AREA WITH A DIRT/GRAVEL BASE. A SERVICE TECHNICIAN REMOVED THE "PLUG" (WHICH I STILL HAVE) AND REPLACED IT WITH HOSE DESIGNED FOR FUEL. IF WE HAD NOT COME BACK IMMEDIATELY TO THE MOTORHOME THE PROPANE REFRIGERATOR, A PASSING SMOKER, OR A SPARK COULD HAVE CAUSED A MAJOR CONFLAGRATION WITH THE LOSS OF LIFE. A RECALL ALERT SHOULD BE ISSUED TO INSPECT AND REPLACE IF NECESSARY THE UN-USED FILL PORTS ON WORKHORSE CHASSIS. THE FILL PORT HOSE USED ON MY MOTOR HOME ON THE OTHER SIDE WAS CORRECT. THE CHOICE OF A MONACO ADMIRAL DOES NOT APPEAR ON THE CHOICES IN THE FOLLOWING PAGE PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU NEED A SAMPLE OF THE FAILED HOSE OR WISH MORE INFORMATION. *TR
