What are the defects?
The fuel-tank strap retaining bolts may be faulty and could fail, which could result in movement of the vehicle's fuel tank, including it detaching from the vehicle.
What are the hazards?
If the fuel tank detaches from the vehicle, this may cause fuel to leak from the tank. This could result in a fire or an accident, increasing the risk of serious injury or death to vehicle occupants and other road users.
What should consumers do?
Consumers should contact their nearest MG dealer to arrange an inspection of the vehicle and replacement of the fuel-tank retaining bolts, free of charge.
