NHTSA recall 14V682000
Fuel System, Gasoline · Ford Motor Company
Details
What's wrong: Due to corrosion from salt water exposure such as from road salt use, the affected vehicles may leak fuel from the fuel tank seam weld under the tank mounting reinforcement brackets.
Why it matters: A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.
The fix: Interim notices were mailed to owners on December 12, 2014. The recall began on October 6, 2015. Dealers will inspect the vehicles and either clean and treat the fuel tank with a corrosion preventative or replace the tank, free of charge.
