Mazda has announced that they will be recalling certain models of the 2007 - 2008 Mazda 6’s with California emission specifications. The metal fuel tanks on the affectded vehicles may have had the pvc protective coating on the outside of the fuel tank damaged during the assembly process which may result in reduced corrosion resistance.
This could lead to preforation of the fuel tank, causing fuel leakage. Fuel linkage in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire. Dealers will inspect the bottom surface of the fuel tank for damage to the protective coating and, if necessary, repair the coating or replace the fuel tank. The recall is expected to begin on or about August 28, 2008. Ownerds may contact Mazda at 1-800-222-5500.
