This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
After having the vehicle serviced and a powersteering hose replaced, the vehicle was loosing a lot of fuel in the engine compartment (7 gallons in 10 miles). It turned out to be a fuel line connection on the drivers side in the engine compartment that was not fully connected and sprayed fuel out. The connection is a factory standard quick connect type.. in my opinion, fuel lines should not be of this type of quick connection, since failure to properly connect the lines may have detrimental results. Fuel lines should have threaded or similar type of connection. Once disconnected they would require an effort in connecting and may not result in an inadvertant oversight. In my case, it just sprayed out lots of fuel in a short amount of time while driving.
