| The fuel tank in my diesel ford van (2006) is delaminating. i had 2 injectors replaced along with the fuel regulator as a result of this defective fuel tank.($2,000) ford will not take responsibility for this part failure. now i have to replace the fuel tank, fuel pump and fuel filters as a result. the repair will be an additional $2,000. ford is blaming the diesel fuel for this problem. i only fill up at major fuel stations and when i do there is only 1 choice for diesel fuel at the pump. | |||
