Recall 1999215

  • CA Recall: Fuel supply
    On certain trucks equipped with an 8 foot box, pickup box attachments may be damaged during the 48 km/h front barrier test. during the subsequent static rollover test required by cmvss 301 - fuel system integrity, a pickup box with damaged attachments may shift or become detached, and may result in fuel spillage exceeding the rate specified in the standard. also, on all 1999-2000 gasoline powered vehicles with 8-foot boxes, the fuel tank vapour recovery valve may separate internally resulting in excessive fuel spillage during the rollover test. correction: (1) the box-to-chassis attachment will be augmented by installing pickup box to chassis retaining cables. (2) the front fuel tank strap isolator will be repositioned. (3) a stop plate assembly will be installed on the vehicle frame forward of the fuel tank to prevent vapour recovery valve contact with a frame cross-member during the impact sequence.
