Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Just purchased the car april 13, 2020. Strong gasoline smell emitting from front end of vehicle and in cabin. Seems to be coming from the driver side of car. Does not happen all the time. Does not matter if the gas tank is full, half, or empty. Can't find any leaks under the hood, but still has a very strong smell of gasoline.”
NHTSA complaint #11323093, filed 2020-05, 119,000 miles“The car has been burning through oil. It has been requesting a quart of oil be added just about every 500-700 miles. About a year ago the problem started in early 2019 and at first it was just every 1200-900 miles that the car would ask for an extra quart of oil. Then in the past 6 months it has gotten worse asking for a quart of oil every 500-700 miles; this is all in addition to the regularly schedule oil changes.”
