Defect	In the fuel tank for four-wheel drive vehicles, due to insufficient design consideration for the valve that regulates internal pressure within the tank, some of these valves may not close. As a result, when the internal pressure of the fuel tank increases, fuel may flow into the ACF (charcoal canister), potentially leading to fuel leakage.
