Manufacturer: Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, Ltd.
Manufacture Dates: 11/02/2012 - 01/18/2013

Defect Description:
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.
