Recall 83V048000: Possible Fuel Tank Leak

FUEL TANKS ON VEHICLES MAY EXHIBIT FUEL LEAKAGE WHEN COMPLETELY FILLED BECAUSE THE LUGGAGE PARTITION ATTACHMENT SCREWS HAVE PENETRATED THE TOP OF THE TANK.

THE DEALER WILL REMOVE THE EXISTING FUEL TANK, GRIND OFF THE SCREW TIPS IN THE AREA OF THE FUEL TANK AND INSTALL A NEW TANK AT NO CHARGE.

LIGHT TRUCKS AND MULTI-PURPOSE PASSENGER VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH SPECIAL LUGGAGE PARTITIONS.

SYSTEM: FUEL; FUEL TANK.

CONSEQUENCES OF DEFECT: SHOULD THE FUEL TANK BE DAMAGED, THE POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR FUEL LEAKAGE WHICH MAY LEAD TO AN UNDERBODY FIRE.

NOTE: THE OWNER SHOULD NOT FILL THE TANK MORE THAN THREE QUARTERS FULL UNTIL THE DEFECTIVE FUEL TANK IS REPLACED.
