Hazard

On large and medium-sized transit buses, the protective material at the edge of the interior fuel tank cover has inappropriate material composition and structure. When passengers board or alight and luggage or similar items contact the edge, the protective material's outer layer wears away, exposing the internal reinforcing core. Continued use in this condition may result in passengers being injured by contact with the exposed core edge.
