I HAVE A 1992 FORD F150 SUPERCAB 4X4 TRUCK WITH DUAL FUEL TANKS. I NOTICED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE STOPPED WORKING ABOUT 1 YEAR AGO. LAST WEEK, I FILLED THE REAR TANK, DROVE 30 MILES TO MY PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT, AND MY FUEL GAUGE WAS REGISTERING 1/2 OF A TANK. ON THE 30 MILE DRIVE HOME, THE FUEL GAUGE WENT FROM 1/2 TO EMPTY. I ASSUMED THAT I HAD LOST THE SENSOR IN THE REAR TANK AS WELL. LAST NIGHT, ON THE DRIVE HOME, I REFUELED MY REAR TANK JUST TO BE SURE I HAD ENOUGH FOR THE WEEKEND. THIS MORNING, WHEN I EXITED MY TRUCK AT WORK, FUEL WAS POURING OUT OF THE FRONT TANK FILL CAP. WHEN I TRIED TO REMOVE THE CAP TO RELEASE PRESSURE, FUEL SHOT OUT APPROXIMATELY 1-2 FEET. I SEARCHED THE INTERNET ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND FOUND RECALL ID 93V12500. WHEN I CALLED MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP AND ASKED ABOUT THE RECALL, I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO RECORD OF A RECALL FOR THIS. I THEN CONTACTED NHTSA, WHO INFORMED ME TO CONTACT FORD MANUFACTURING. I CONTACTED FORD, AND WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN NUMBER DID NOT FALL UNDER A RECALL, AND WHEN I ASKED TO SPEAK TO A SUPERVISOR, I WAS REFUSED AND WAS TOLD THAT NOTHING WOULD BE DONE. *TR
