The hazard

On certain snowmobiles, the fuel tank can contact the chassis along the left and right bulkheads and around the steering hoop. This chafing could, over time, wear through the walls of the tank, causing a leak. Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire. Correction: Dealer will install protective edge trim to various components in order to isolate the fuel tank.
