| 2006 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE | FIRST INSTANCE WAS ON SUNDAY, 6 MAY 2012. CAR STALLED AFTER TURNING ONTO CITY STREET WHILE ACCELERATING TO POSTED SPEED: 35 MPH. IF FUEL TANK IS FILLED TO CLICK ON GAS PUMP (FULL TANK) THIS CONTINUES TO HAPPEN, ESPECIALLY IN VERY HUMID WEATHER CONDITIONS/RAIN. CAR HAS ALSO STALLED ON HILLS AT STOP SIGNS OR TRAFFIC LIGHTS AND HAS STALLED AT ON-RAMPS TO LOCAL INTERSTATE HIGHWAY/CITY BYPASS, GIVEN THE ABOVE FULL FUEL TANK ISSUE. IF I DON'T FILL THE TANK ABOVE THE 7/8 MARK ON THE FUEL GAGE INDICATOR, THE CAR DOES NOT STALL. IF I EXCEED THE 7/8 MARK, THEN THE CAR DOES STALL, MULTIPLE TIMES IF VERY HUMID CONDITIONS EXIST AND WILL CONTINUE UNTIL THE FUEL TANK IS AT OR BELOW 7/8 CAPACITY. I'VE HAD APPROXIMATELY 22 STALLS SINCE SUNDAY 6 MAY 2012. IT'S INCONVENIENT TO HAVE TO GUESS WHEN TO STOP THE FUEL PUMP AT GAS STATIONS AND VERY FRIGHTENING TO STALL IN TRAFFIC, ESPECIALLY AT ON-RAMPS TO HIGHWAYS. *TR |
| 2010 | STEERING | WHILE DRIVING I BEGAN TO EXPERIENCE HEARING A KNOCKING NOISE COMING FROM THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF CAR. THIS PROBLEM WAS FIRST NOTED SEVERAL DAYS AFTER PURCHASING FROM DEALER. DEALER WAS NOTIFIED AND ADVISED THE PROBLEM WOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF. RECEIVED THE VEHICLE BACK AND NO NOISE. SEVERAL MONTHS LATER SAME NOISE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO DEALER BECAUSE ALONG WITH THE NOISE THE TIRES ON VEHICLE WAS WORN IRREGULARLY. THE DEALER REFUSED TO REPAIR ISSUE. GOODYEAR INSPECTED VEHICLE AND ADVISED THAT THE TIRES AND ALIGNMENT WAS SEVERLY OFF. I WAS ADVISED BY GOODYEAR THAT VEHICLE APPEARS TO BE OK BUT IS KNOWN TO HAVE SUSPENSION ISSUE. RECENTLY I TOOK VEHICLE FOR TIRE ROTATION AND WAS ADVISED THAT OUTER TIE ROD ENDS ARE LOOSE AND REQUIRED IMMEDIATE REPAIR. THIS EXPLAINED MY INABILITY TO STEER EFFECTIVELY AND KNOCKING NOISE WHICH RETURNS. *TR |
