F-150

  • 74,303 miles
I drive a 1999 Ford F150. On August 3, 2010, I had my truck into the service center to replace a brake line. While they were replacing the brake line, they noticed that one of the straps to the gas tank has broken and the other was almost rusted through. I see that you have opening an investigation into these and I want to ensure that you have an accurate count of the problems. I had both straps replaced.
