The issue
On certain vehicles, stress cracks may develop on the LP tank weld joints where the mounting brackets are welded to the tank. This could lead to an LP leak through the weld joints. The escape of LP gas from the tank has the potential to ignite, resulting in personal injury and/or vehicle damage. Correction: Dealer will remove and insect the LP tank, and if necessary, replace the tank.
Description (français)
Sur certains véhicules, des fissures de contrainte pourraient se développer sur les joints de soudure du réservoir de propane liquide aux endroits où les supports de montage sont soudés au réservoir. Cela pourrait provoquer une fuite de propane liquide à travers les joints de soudure. Le gaz de propane liquide du réservoir pourrait alors s'enflammer, ce qui pourrait causer des blessures corporelles et/ou endommager le véhicule. Correction : Le concessionnaire devra enlever et inspecter le réservoir de propane liquide et le remplacer si nécessaire.
