Details

What's wrong: The front fuel tank bracket attachment nuts were torqued below the specification. These "loose" nuts can, in time, come off the bracket studs allowing the front of the tank to sag below the normal vehicle silhouette.

Why it matters: If the front of the fuel tank sags below the normalvehicle silhouette, the fuel tank could strike something in the road or the road surface resulting in a fuel tank leak and possible under-vehicle fire.

The fix: Dealers will retorque the fuel tank strap bracket to proper specifications.
