Ford Recalls 65,000 F-Series Trucks

65,000 F-Series Super Duty pickups are being recalled by the Ford Motor company.

The recall is being made so that the fuel-tank mounting can be strengthened in order to prevent a gasoline leak in a head on collision.

According to Ford, a front-end crash of 30 mph or more could cause the fuel tank to move forward, spilling fuel and possibly causing it to ignite.

The recall is affecting some 2008 F-250's and F-350 trucks, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website.
