Tank strap recall

[ranchhopper]

My neighbors broke and the front dropped down while hooking up to a horse trailer lucky they noticed it before leaving the yard. Reminds me of the way the forward spring hanger for the rear leafs on the square body chevys used to rot the frame behind it when rocks would close up the drain hole and salt and dirt piled up in it and held the moisture against the trucks frame.

I just had the same happen to my 2016 so they never fixed the problem and mine isn't covered by recall.

There’s an extended warranty for the fuel tank strap. Pretty sure it’s a 12 year unlimited miles for 09-18 models. Call your dealer and ask about it.

Easy fix, squirt fluid film in there. I did that to a few key points that I learned from my 2014 express. Fluid film can’t wash out and it can’t rust out/off. Front holes on the leading edge of the hood spray toward the front edge and you won’t get rust bubbles on the outside edge of the hood by the grill and headlights.
