- Summary
- On certain trucks built with 26 gallon fuel tanks, the fuel tank may have a depression at the seam between the top and bottom halves of the tank (not visible from outside the fuel tank). If a depression is large enough, fuel may permeate the fuel tank wall resulting in a fuel odor, or a "service engine soon" indicator light.
- Consequence
- If left uncorrected, a fuel leak could eventually develop. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire.
- Remedy
- Dealers will replace the fuel tank free of charge. The recall began on June 25, 2007. Owners may contact Ford at 1-866-436-7332.

Has your Ford been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. Recall repairs are free.
