Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The van would seem in perfect running order, but after parking and returning to vehicle, it would not start. After several times, the vehicle wouldn't start at all. When we took off the fuel pump, which is located inside the gas tank, the wires had shorted out and were burned. This seems dangerous and I feel it could have started a fire or caused an explosion. I checked other complaints and I am not the only one this has happened to. Please make the manufacturer check this part and make sure it is safe and that this will not result in a fire for someone else!!”
