The DRing is the Seat belt clip thingy,... which affect all years
The Gas tank thing is 98's and older. SOME had issues with the tank, where it would literally crack! Because the gas cap would not hold the pressure.
Fix wsa to replace the gas cap. But it affected VERY few Tibs.

If you really wanted to know what outstanding recalls are on your car, just call your dealer and give them your VIN. Most reputable dealers will tell you.
Like ours.
