Consumer Description

THE DIESEL FUEL TANK ON MY 2004 FORD F450 IS DELAMINATING ON THE INSIDE OF THE TANK AND CAUSING FUEL CONTAMINATION WITH METALIC PARTICLES. IF THIS CONDITION HAD GONE UNDISCOVERED IT WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN FAILURE OF THE INJECTOR PUMP AND ULTIMATLY THE ENGINE ITSELF. THIS IS A SERIOUS FACTORY DEFECT WITH DRIVER/PASSENGER SAFETY IMPLICATIONS FOR ALL LATE MODEL FORD SUPER DUTY TRUCKS. FORD SHOULD BE FORCED TO RECALL THESE TRUCKS AND REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE TANKS REENGINEERED FUEL TANKS. *TR
