This could result in fuel leakage with the potential for fire. Correction:  Fuel tanks will be inspected and replaced if necessary.  In addition, insulators will be installed to reduce stress levels in the fuel tank and reduce the likelihood of future cracks.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"01S14","part_number":null,"units":7191,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","french":{"component":"Système d'alimentation en carburant","notification":"Sécurité - fabricant","summary":"Sur certains véhicules aménagées en ambulances et dotées du réservoir de carburant de 132,5 L monté au milieu du véhicule, par conditions d'utilisation extrêmes (à la limite ou presque du poids nominal brut du véhicule avec de fréquentes torsion de la carrosserie, comme en conduite hors route, sur mauvaise route et au passage d'une bosse de ralentissement), une fissure d'environ un pouce de long peut se développer sur les réservoirs montés au milieu du véhicule si ces derniers entrent en contact avec la traverse du châssis, ce qui pourrait provoquer une fuite de carburant avec risque d'incendie. Correction : Les réservoirs de carburant devront être inspectés et remplacés s'il y a lieu. De plus, des tampons d'isolation devront être posés pour réduire le niveau de contrainte sur le réservoir et diminuer les risques de fissures."},"vehicles":[{"year":1997,"make":"FORD","model":"E150","vehicle_id":"1997_ford_e-150","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":1998,"make":"FORD","model":"E150","vehicle_id":"1998_ford_e-150","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":1999,"make":"FORD","model":"E150","vehicle_id":"1999_ford_e-150","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2000,"make":"FORD","model":"E150","vehicle_id":"2000_ford_e-150","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2001,"make":"FORD","model":"E150","vehicle_id":"2001_ford_e-150","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":1997,"make":"FORD","model":"E350","vehicle_id":"1997_ford_e-350","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":1998,"make":"FORD","model":"E350","vehicle_id":"1998_ford_e-350","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":1999,"make":"FORD","model":"E350","vehicle_id":"1999_ford_e-350","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2000,"make":"FORD","model":"E350","vehicle_id":"2000_ford_e-350","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2001,"make":"FORD","model":"E350","vehicle_id":"2001_ford_e-350","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null}],"may_apply":true,"as_of":"2026-10-19","lookup":{"nhtsa":"https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls","tc":"https://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/VRDB-BDRV/search-recherche/menu.aspx?lang=eng","maker":null},"attribution":["Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Canada."],"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/tc/2001078"}
