2007 Dodge RAM 3500 recall: fuel system
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain cab/chassis pickup trucks equipped with an optional 23 gallon fuel tank, the fuel tank straps were improperly manufactured and could separate. This CAN cause the fuel tank to loosen and leak fuel.
💥 The risk
Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source CAN result in an underbody fire.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace the fuel tank retention straps and fasteners free of charge. The recall began on november 12, 2007. Owners may contact daimlerchrysler at 1-800-853-1403.
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.)
