Les plaques d’assemblage servent aussi de points de fixation pour la courroie arrière du réservoir de carburant médian. Il se peut que les pièces de fixation tombent et que la courroie arrière du réservoir en question se détache. La capacité de rétention de ce réservoir pourrait s’en trouver diminuée lors d’un accident.
