| Tl- i have only 2005 pontiac montana entervan from braun, and it is about to get its fifth fuel tank. two other tanks were delivered but not installed because they were defective. i once met a guy with a vehicle like mine and he also had a fuel tank leak. i believe that this should be investigated. while the population of vehicles is small, the handicapped people in them are most vulnerable. this is especially true if the wheelchair ramp will not go down or there's a fire in the area of the ramp. the contact wanted to file the complaint that he sent via email. the current miles were 65,000. the vin was not available. bl | |||
