Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Gas tank leaks when filled completely, indicating a leak at the top of the tank or gas lines going into the tank. i have contacted ford several times but they say it is not covered. i do not believe the leak was caused by a road hazard since it is at the top of the tank. ford said they will not cover the repair since it has not been recalled. they did agree it is a serious safety hazard. *ak
