“Since the car was recalled for a fuel system issue, I have been experience issues with my fuel gauges and gas tank. I fill my tank but it triggers the gas pump that it is full when I know it is not full. The gauge will read that I am down 3/4 of a tank but when I go to fill the gas tank, it only allows me to put in about 5 gallons, knowing that I should be filling it with 8-9 gallons to fill my tank. Another issue I now have, is the gauges takes 20 minutes to register that I have filled my tank. I know longer trust my fuel gauge or any readings given on the dashboard.”
NHTSA complaint #10909634, filed 2016-09, 35,000 miles“I was parallel parking the car. I pulled alongside the curb behind a volvo and stopped the car. With the car stopped and my foot on the brake I moved my right hand to press the park button and to my surprise the car leaped (5 feet) forward into the volvo causing damage to my car (hood, grill, bumper and right quarter panel) and the volvo (rear end). The gas engine was not running when I was parking only the electric engine was running. We were fortunate that my wife, son and I were not injured. They will not get back in this car again. …”
