MY 1992 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER HAS A STRESS CRACK IN THE TOP OF THE PLASTIC FUEL TANK, IDENTICAL TO THE RECALL FOR 1993-95 RANGE ROVERS UNDER NHTSA #04V20300. LAND ROVER CAN'T TELL ME WHY THE 1992 VEHICLES ARE NOT COVERED. GAS NOW POURS OUT OF TANK ONTO THE GROUND DURING FILL-UP. I WANT COVERAGE OF THIS POTENTIALLY FATAL DESIGN FLAW UNDER THE SAME PARAMETERS AS NHTSA RECALL #04V20300. *NM
