What NHTSA recorded

Trucks fail to meet requirement of fmvss no. 301, fuel system integrity, in a 30 mph front angular barrier test impact because of the omission of the nose shield on midship fuel tank. Consequence of defect: in case of an accident, fuel spillage in the trucks which do not meet the fmvss increases the risk of a fire.
