 If your vehicle has traveled a good many miles, checking the condition of your GMC fuel tank may be wise. The GMC fuel tank takes a lot of punishment as you travel, hit by road debris and moisture, and coated with slush, snow and road salt in the winter. Positioned in the undercarriage of the vehicle, under the cargo area, the GMC fuel tank is vulnerable to the abuse of the road and elements. When manufactured, the GMC fuel tank is usually equipped with a corrosion resistant coating, protecting it from the harsh treatment it receives, but over time, it can become worn thin by the constant onslaught of moisture and debris. The metal mounting straps that hold the GMC fuel tank in place can wear on its finish, rubbing against the surface as the vehicle travels over bumps and rough roads.
 These damaged areas on the surface of the GMC fuel tank can become the starting point for corrosion and rust, eventually eating through the surface, allowing the contamination of moisture into the fuel supply, or allowing the fuel to leak from the GMC fuel tank. When the GMC fuel tank develops a leak, it may not be immediately obvious if it is a small one as fuel tends to evaporate quickly and may not leave a puddle under the vehicle. Leaking fuel can become quite dangerous, posing a fire hazard or risk of explosion, making the prompt repair of a faulty GMC fuel tank rather important.
