RJ-1475-0

On certain vehicles with vertically placed fuel tank whose original placement was horizontal, the metallic parts securing the fuel tank to the frame, namely tank support and tank support brackets, are secured with bolts of insufficient strength. If this problem is left unattended, the bolts may break from vibration during driving etc. If the vehicle continues to be driven with such a broken bolt, the metallic parts may come off, and in the worst case the fuel tank could fall off. This recall is submitted, because the countermeasures of the RJ-0622-0 recall (submitted on 22nd August 2000) were not appropriate for some of the vehicles and they needed to be revised.
