Certain Ram 1500 pickup trucks equipped with a 34 gallon fuel tank fail to comply with requirements of CMVSS 301 - Fuel System Integrity. The fuel tank may become damaged during certain crash conditions, which could allow fuel leakage to occur if the vehicle rolls over. Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire. Correction: Dealers will install a fuel tank shield onto the front frame cross member.
