description: ON OCTOBER 4 2010 MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING THE 1997 FORD F-150 TO SCHOOL FOR VOLLEYBALL PRACTICE WHEN THE FRONT STRAP HOLDING THE FUEL TANK BROKE FREE THUS CAUSING THE FRONT OF THE FUEL TANK TO DROP DOWN ONTO THE CEMENT ROADWAY THUS WEARING A HOLE IN THE FRONT CORNER OF THE FUEL TANK AND RELEASING GAS ONTO THE CEMENT ROADWAY. SHE CALLED ME RIGHT AWAY TO TELL ME OF THE INCIDENT AND SAID THERE WAS A LITTLE SMOKE BUT NO FIRE AND THAT GAS WAS RELEASING. I THEN TOLD HER TO HANG UP AND CALL 911. POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENT RESPONDED AND HANDLED THE SITUATION. THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP TOWED THE PICKUP TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND ALSO DID THE REPAIR WORK OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS.
