Recall 01V106000: Body Ground Strap Missing
Vehicle Description: F-Super Duty Crew Cab pickup trucks (F-350 short wheel base trucks equipped with a 6-3/4' pickup box and dual rear wheels) were
built after a change was implemented to delete a clamp, and later a bracket that provided a ground for the fuel filler pipe. The pickup box may not have
been properly grounded. Without proper grounding, an electrostatic discharge could result during fuel fill up, potentially leading to a fire. Dealers will
install a fuel filler pipe ground. Owner notification is expected to begin during April 2001. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an
agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Ford at 1-800-392-3673. Also contact the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Auto Safety Hotline at 1-888-DASH-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
