Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Sitting idle at a stop light and my van stalled. While I tried to start it again, it began to accelerate on its own. It will stall while driving and lose all power and the steering/ brakes get hard. It will begin to accelerate on its own while the brake is pushed. I had it diagnosed yesterday and it is a melted wiring fuel rail harness that was placed right above the exhaust manifold. It can melt and catch fire. This is a known problem with this year and model. Please help!”
