Body problems of the 1998 Ford Econoline

Two problems related to body have been reported for the 1998 Ford Econoline. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Body problem

Failure Date: 07/08/2020

Van is leaking fuel from a crack where it contacts the frame member. This van was subject to a recall beginning April 19, 2001. I did not own the vehicle at that time, but apparently vehicle was not leaking so it was not fixed. I do not have the recall number. I obtained this information from a VIN look up at https://driving-tests. Org/VIN-decoder/ vehicle only leaks fuel when filling up at the gas station. Once I stop filling up, the leaking will drip, drip, drip until it stops and I can drive off. Next time I will take a picture of leaking.

2 Body problem

Failure Date: 08/13/2001

Water would enter inside of truck and would short out entire electrical system, interior and exterior lights. Warranty expired.
