## What is wrong

On certain vehicles operated in areas of heavy road salt usage during winter months, the fuel tank straps could corrode and fail.  This could allow the fuel tank to contact the ground, which may compromise the tank's integrity and permit fuel leakage.  Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire causing property damage and/or personal injury.  Correction: Dealers will replace the fuel tank straps with zinc coated versions.
