| Description of the problem | I was carrying an old battery on the truck bed and the battery leaks so the fluid spilled over my fuel tank and burn/corrode the vacuum and gas lines. I think the fuel tank should be protected with an upper skill plate because is a truck and you always carry different things and this is kind of expose or drain holes of the bed are not located properly, so they wanna charge me 2k dls for something that is a bad design problem. |
