Pontiac Grand Am: Fuel System
Affects Pontiac Grand Am · 2004 — about 166 vehicles.
The hazard
On certain vehicles, a weld on the fuel tank may be insufficient, resulting in a fuel leak. If this were to occur the operator may notice a strong fuel smell and some dampness on the ground. If a sufficient amount of fuel were to leak out and if an ignition source were present, a vehicle fire could occur. Correction: Dealers will inspect the fuel tank, and replace, if necessary.
