Consumer Description

REGIONAL RECALL 99R33 - GAS TANK STRAPS INSTALLED. CONCERN ABOUT FAILURE OF TANK DUE TO HIGH TEMPERATURE FLEXING, AS DESCRIBED IN THE REGIONAL RECALL. IT APPEARS TO ME THE POTENTIAL OF FAILURE AND A FIRE IS JUST AS LIKELY AS IN THE LISTED STATES. ALSO, THIS VEHICLE MAY IN FACT END UP IN ONE OF THE LISTED STATES. THIS IS A FOIRE HAZZARD THAT SHOULD BE FIXED IN ALL WINSTAR VEHICLES. IT APPEARS FORD RECOGNIZED THE PROBLEM AND FIXED IT IN THE 1996 MODELS; THUS SHOWING THERE IS A DEFECTIVE SYSTEM IN 1995 MODELS. FORD SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO FIX ALL AFFECTED MEDELS, OR SHOW THE REATRAINING BRACKETS DI IN FACT FIX THE PROBLEM.A
