Consumer Description

MY 1995 FORD F-150 HAS DUEL GAS TANKS AND THE REAR TANK STRAPS HAVE CORRODED CAUSING THE TANK TO LOOSE ALL FUEL(1/2 TANK) LEAKING OVER THE SPARE TIRE AND UNDERSIDE OF THE TANK. THIS STARTED WITH THE SMELL OF RAW FUEL IN JULY BUT COULD NOT FIND THE LEAK UNTIL 3 DAYS AGO WHEN I FOUND A LARGE GAS SPOT ON THE DRIVE WAY DIRECTLY UNDER THE REAR TANK AND THE DRIPPING FUEL FROM THE SPARE. I HAVE NOT TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER YET BUT AM PLANNING TO THIS WEEK. THE TANK HAS QUIT LEAKING DUE TO BEING PRETTY WELL EMPTY. BUT THE ODOR IS STILL THERE. THE TRUCK HAS 74,062.4 ORIGINAL MILES AT THIS TIME AND I HAVE OWNED IT SINCE NOVEMBER 1974. I HAVE OWNED MANY FORD'S AND EVEN WORKED FOR FORD AT THE HEAVY TRUCK PLANT IN LOUISVILLE KY ALONG WITH MY UNCLE AND TWO COUSINS . NEVER ENCOUNTERED ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE. I HOPE FORD WILL RECTIFY THIS PROBLEM. *TR
