Example complaints

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

“The dealer replaced the filler tube for filling up the gas tank. Every time I pump gas into the vehicle I get back splash that goes all over myself and the ground. I've been trying to get them to fix the problem, but the dealer and the manufacturer don't want to fix the problem. The vehicle was still under warranty when the problem started. They have replaced the filler tube twice and the gas tank, but the problem still exists. This back splash is dangerous to my health and the environment. I bought this vehicle brand new. The problem wasn't there when I bought the van.”

NHTSA complaint #10489191, filed 2012-12, 24,388 miles

“The contact owns a 2006 Mazda MPV. The contact stated whenever fuel was added to the vehicle it spilled back out. The dealer replaced the filler tube twice and the fuel tank one time since the vehicle was repaired and the failure continued to occur. The fuel continued to spill out on the contact. The manufacturer wrote a letter and a customer service representative should have notified him. The failure mileage was 38,944.”
