Ford Motor Company is recalling approximately 11,074 vehicles, including certain 2022-2023 E-350 and E-450 models, as well as 2021-2022 F-59 vehicles. The paint along the weld seam of the fuel tank may peel, which can cause the exposed metal to corrode and eventually develop a fuel leak. Owners of these vehicles should contact a Ford dealer to have their fuel tank inspected and, if necessary, replaced for free.
A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source significantly increases the risk of a vehicle fire. Corrosion along the weld seam can weaken the tank's integrity until fuel escapes, creating a hazardous situation for occupants and bystanders.
You have 2 options:
Free inspection of the fuel tank weld seam paint.
Free fuel tank replacement if necessary.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
