I have an 1986 ford ranger. Leaking gas from the fuel pump lines. Can I get this fixed and is the recall still available?

Do you drive a 1986 FORD RANGER?

Just because a car has been recalled does not mean it is not a reliable car. Millions of cars get recalled every year. Recalls often involve problems that are rare but could cause a serious problem if they occur. So the risk to any given driver is often remote, even though there may be a few high-profile incidents traced to the problem.
