Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND BEGAN TO HEAR A SCRAPING NOISE. WHEN I GOT TO WORK I LOOKED UNDER MY CAR AND NOTICED THAT ONE OF THE FUEL TANK STRAPS HAD RUSTED THROUGH AND SNAPPED. I LOOKED ONLINE TO ORDER A NEW ONE AND FOUND A WEBSITE SAYING THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE.
