Fuel leak by model year
What owners say
I have a 95 ford ranger. The "fuel filler neck and hose" has become defective to the point where gas pours out the bottom of the vehicle when I put gas in the truck. I took it to a local shop (not a ford dealership) and called several other places and was told by everyone that this part is not sold after-market, and you can only buy it from ford. I was also told that many ford ranger owners are looking for this same part. I was very surprised that ford had a monopoly on this part given that it such a key safety component. I am being forced to purchase a ford part just so my truck won't leak gas, and I don't understand why it's leaking gas in the first place. That's a basic safety feature! I understand that all vehicles need repair from time to time, but I should be able to put gas in my truck without fear of fire from the leak.
1995 ranger xl pick-up. Fuel leak at the fuel tank were the refueling hose connects to the fuel tank. The hose is inferior construction and is causing a major fuel leak and possible fire! Fault discovered while refueling vehicle.
The consumer discovered a gas leak about three months ago. Since he is a certified mechanic, he examined his vehicle and found that fuel was leaking from the filler hose. The filler hose was soft and deteriorating and the gas was leaking from the cracks in the hose. The cracks have become larger and now more gas is leaking. The consumer is afraid to drive the vehicle because of the fire hazard. The consumer contacted the manufacturer who stated the there was nothing that could be done because there was no recall on the filler hose. *nm
