“The car doesn't start when I turn the key, if its too hot out or cold out. It takes 30 minutes of turning the key over before the car will start. I have brought it into the dealership 4 or 5 times now, and they put a downward tail pipe on it, but still hasn't fixed the problem.”
NHTSA complaint #10265306, filed 2009-04, 12,000 miles“Multiple times the vehicle has been hard to start. It cranks for a while but does not start on the first try. On the second it cranks for a while and just barely starts. One time it started on the third try. It seems like the fuel pump is not priming the lines in time.”
