2002 Panzer Digger DXF recall: fuel system
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain motorcycles equipped with 4.2 gallon fuel tanks built by drag specialties. The seam welds on the tank CAN leak.
💥 The risk
Fuel spillage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace the fuel tank. Owner notification is expected to begin during march 2002. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact panzer at 1-719-269-7267.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
