If you have hit a few of those speed bumps in the mall parking lot too fast, or been the victim of a large crater sized pot-hole in the road, these kind of incidents can be tough on the Ford fuel tank, causing dents or scrapes in the surface. The Ford fuel tank is a rugged component, built to stand up to the punishment of the elements and the road. Its position makes the Ford fuel tank quite likely to receive a good amount of this type of abuse, mounted in the undercarriage of the vehicle, just under the trunk area.
When manufactured, most models of the Ford fuel tank are equipped with a corrosion resistant coating to help it withstand the onslaught of road debris and the harsh treatment from moisture and the elements. Over time this coating can become compromised, scratched by road debris and the impact of rocks on its surface, kicked up by the wheels.
The metal mounting straps can wear on the surface of the Ford fuel tank with the vibration and bumping of rough roads. These damaged areas can become vulnerable to corrosion, helped along by the splash of moisture and the invasion of road salt as your vehicle travels. Eventually this corrosion can create holes in the Ford fuel tank, allowing moisture contamination or leaks. If your Ford fuel tank develops a leak immediate replacement is necessary, as such a situation can be quite dangerous, posing a hazard of fire or explosion.
