“Dt: within three months the fuel line came lose twice. The first time it occurred on june 26, 2005. Another consumer alerted him that there was a bad fuel leakage. When the vehicle was taken to the dealer, he was told that fuel line came lose from the fuel filter. They did not find any damage done to fuel line so they just reconnected it. Again on september 28, 2005 the problem recurred. This time the consumer just happened to notice that the motor was skipping and the fuel gauge was going down quickly. He was able to get safely off the road. …”
