What is wrong
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars is recalling certain model year 2013 Phantom vehicles manufactured from November 2, 2012, through January 18, 2013. The fuel filler necks may be missing the anti-misfueling devices. The devices prevent misfueling and discharge static electricity.
Safety risk
Without the anti-misfueling device, there is an increased risk of fire from static electricity.
The fix
Rolls-Royce is presently contacting all affected owners. Dealers will inspect the gas tank and replace any affected fuel filler necks, free of charge. The recall began in early February 2013. Owners may contact Rolls-Royce at 1-877-877-3735.
Affected models
Model years listed by NHTSA for this campaign. Only vehicles within the build range in the notice are affected.
