Recall 2007184

The issue

Certain Ram 1500 pickup trucks equipped with a 34 gallon fuel tank fail to comply with requirements of CMVSS 301 - Fuel System Integrity. The fuel tank may become damaged during certain crash conditions, which could allow fuel leakage to occur if the vehicle rolls over. Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire. Correction: Dealers will install a fuel tank shield onto the front frame cross member.

Description (français)

Certaines camionnettes Ram 1500 équipées d'un réservoir de carburant de 34 gallons ne satisfont pas aux exigences de la NSVAC 301 - Étanchéité du circuit d'alimentation en carburant. Le réservoir de carburant pourrait être endommagé lors de certains accidents, ce qui pourrait permettre à une fuite de carburant de se produire si le véhicule capotait.

Correction : Les concessionnaires devront poser un bouclier de réservoir de carburant sur la traverse avant.
