Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Approximately 4-5 months ago I began to experience engine surging while driving in town. Unable to find any vacuum leaks, I inspected the fuel filler neck to find it badly deteriorated in the area just above the gas tank. I replaced it with a new oem quality neck. At the same time I replaced the throttle position sensor, the coolant temperature sensor, rebuilt the fuel injectors and replaced the intake manifold gasket. …”
NHTSA complaint #10501042, filed 2013-03, 90,000 miles“The filler tube going to the gas tank ruptured. When I filled the tank, gas spilled on the ground. Fumes are always around the truck. I paid to have this tube replaced. The truck had 53 k miles. Now it has done the same thing at 74 k miles. I think that this is a very dangerous condition and is costly to keep repairing.”
NHTSA complaint #10255238, filed 2009-01, 53,906 miles“I have replaced the fuel assembly twice on my 1994 Mazda b-3000 due to leaking fuel and paid $400.00 each occurence since I purchased the truck from the dealer. I took note of recall number 94v111002 and Mazda states my VIN number does not match. My truck specifications match as much as I can tell and I would appreciate a detailed explanation. Thank you.”
NHTSA complaint #10078600, filed 2004-06, 76,000 miles“My 1994 Mazda b3000 pickup (I.e. Ford ranger) leaks gasoline when being filled at the filling station due to a faulty fuel tank filler neck. Fuel spills on the ground of filling station (approx 1/2 gal) and is a fire hazard. Cost to replace fuel filler neck is $280 from ford dealership, not including labor - this is prohibitively expensive for a rubber hose. Many other ranger owners experience this same problem, thus indicating that there's a defect in the design/construction of the filler neck.”
NHTSA complaint #10139842, filed 2005-10, 114,000 miles“- the contact stated that the front fuel line in his 1994 Mazda b3000 was cracked and leaking fuel.
