Consequence: Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source can result in a fire.

Remedy: Dealers will inspect the fuel tank assembly for the suspect date codes and replace the four rubber connector hoses if necessary.

Notes: Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Ford at 1-800-392-3673.
