Consumer Description

APPARENTLY THE STRAPS HOLDING THE GAS TANK ON TO MY 2001 FORD F-150 PICK UP RUSTED. TODAY THE TANK FELL OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING WHEN ONE OF THE STRAPS LET GO. FORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO FIRE, HOWEVER I SPILLED A FULL TANK OF GAS WHEN THE TANK SPLIT. THE MILEAGE IS 101,000. FORD SAYS IT'S NO LONGER IN WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH THIS SEEMS TO BE A GROWING PROBLEM. *TT
