The problem
The left side fuel tank support could become rusty if vehicle is operated in areas where salt is used for snow removal. Support may rust entirely through, allowing tank to tilt down on the left side.
The fix
Upon inspection, corroded support brackets will be replaced with reinforcement and u-shaped brackets.
