| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I own a 1999 peterbilt 379 with less than 700,000 miles. today i had to replace a fuel tank strap that broke. based on the age of the truck, it appears to me that it is a little premature to be replacing a strap, especially on something as critical as a fuel tank. i have also read there is a problem with the steering linkage, however i have never received any recall notice from peterbilt or anyone else. what do i need to look for to see if it applies to my truck? *jb |
