2000 FORD F-350 Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2000 Ford F-350 has two recalls, both involving the fuel tank on trucks with 8-foot beds, where crash damage can cause fuel to spill at a rate that raises the risk of fire. Both recalls affect gasoline-engine models with 8-foot beds and center on the fuel tank failing to contain fuel adequately after a frontal crash. In one case, a mounting strap can cut into the tank during impact; in the other, a vapor recovery valve inside the tank can separate. Either way, the result is the same: fuel spills faster than the safety standard allows, and if an ignition source is nearby, that spilled fuel can catch fire.
