Certain vehicles may be missing a support bracket where the front fuel tank strap attaches to the frame. Through continued use, the lack of reinforcement could lead to the fuel tank strap separating from the frame. If this occurs, the fuel tank could move out of position, potentially contacting the ground and causing a fuel leak. A fuel leak, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire causing property damage and/or personal injury.
Correction: Dealers will install reinforcement brackets as necessary.
