What the notice says today
The defect
The fixing bump of the double cabin intermediate can damage the fuel tank. (Dutch: De bevestigingsbout van het dubbele cabine tussenschot kan de brandstoftank beschadigen.)
The consequence
This can lead to fuel leakage. Fuel or fuel vapour accumulating near a surface that is hot enough can flame, increasing the likelihood of fire and injury. (Dutch: Hierdoor kan er brandstoflekkage ontstaan. Brandstof of brandstofdamp die zich ophoopt in de buurt van een oppervlak dat heet genoeg is, kan ontvlammen, waarbij de kans op brand en verwondingen toeneemt. Ophoping van brandstof op de weg kan ook een gevaar vormen voor andere weggebruikers.)
What will be done
The vehicle owner is asked to contact the brand dealer, who will replace the attachment stick. (Dutch: De voertuigeigenaar wordt verzocht contact op te nemen met de merkdealer, deze zal de bevestigingsbout vervangen.)
