NHTSA complaint #10049940, filed 2003-12, 55,000 miles“Consumer smelled gas fumes . This problem was similar to the defect stated in NHTSA recall 98v184000 concerning fuel leakage.

NHTSA complaint #10019221, filed 2003-05“Per news paper article recall. The fuel-injection delivery system can leak fuel from some of the sealing o-rings or from the hairline ccracks in the thermoplastic fuel injection rail. I think this should be a manufactures expense since the vechile I own fits the recall notice? Even though it is not showing up as of yet on the recall list”
