Example complaints

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

“I noticed a strong gas smell while the vehicle was off and while driving. I took it to a repair shop and they said I have a gas leak. I see that there was a recall for gas leaks in warm weather states for a gas leak issue. I live in colorado and was never notified of the issue. I think it may be related to the recall.”

NHTSA complaint #10660153, filed 2014-11, 43,000 miles

“I have leaks in my fuel line and gas tank. One of the leaks is right beside the exhaust system. I know this was cause for recall I'm some states. Why not all states. It's a serious hazard and should be covered under a recall. There's fuel leaking onto the ground.”

NHTSA complaint #10872767, filed 2016-06, 68,000 miles

“Starting smelling gas. The gas smell was mild at first. Mostly only smelling it when the car was parked. Then the gas smell kept getting stronger. The smell of gas could be smelled as driving it. The gas could be seen eventually dripping out onto the ground. There was a recall on fuel pumps for this make and model and year, but not for my area. I believe all the makes and models should of been recalled.”

“I have a fuel line leak between the driver side door and the rear wheel well. The check engine light is on at the engine is difficult to start. Now there is fuel leaking onto the ground. I would like to know if this will be covered under a recall.”

NHTSA complaint #10870022, filed 2016-05, 64,000 miles

“For the past month or so, I could smell gasoline whenever I stopped and exited my car. Finally after someone else smelled it too, I saw a leak just to the right of my driver's side door (just in front of the rear tire). It was leaking quite quickly and had formed a puddle in less than a minute. If someone had walked by me and tossed a lit cigarette, or if I were sitting at a red light and the same thing happen...I hate to think what could've/would've happened. …”
