What NHTSA recorded

On certain vehicles, the welds on the fuel tank mounting brackets may fail. The fuel tank may slip and begin leaking fuel or it may separate entirely from the chassis.

Remedy

The dealer will disconnect the angle mounting brackets and add a strap mounting to the gasoline tank. Any leaking tanks will be replaced at no charge to owners.
