On certain vehicles, tightening of the assembly nut positioned at the front of the fuel tank may be insufficient, due to inadequate process used in assembling the tank. If left unfixed, the nut may become loose and come off, and in the worst case, a crack occurs around the bracing part at the back of the tank, causing fuel leakage.
