Issue

On certain vehicles, the fuel tank could fatigue and crack at a radius inside the tank mounting tabs, potentially resulting in a fuel leak. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the fuel tank with a new one, and install a support bracket. Note: In the interim, owners are advised to stop operating their vehicle until the defect has been repaired.
