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.
The coated fuel line up near the fuel tank rusted from inside out yet the rest of the fuel line especially the part exposed to the road debris and salt was pristine condition. The fuel began spilling while driving and we noticed it when we went to park the car in the driveway - losing ~ 1 L/min..
When I turned ignition to start engine, the car suddenly started to rev erratically with RPM ranging up to 5K+. my foot was on the floor not on brake or gas pedal. Cruise control was off. Floor mat was far from gas pedall. The car was on park plus hand brake was on. My wife and I both were dumbfounded for couple of secs then I finally turned off the ignition. Waited a couple of seconds and car restarted fine. Incident did not recur. Car was in garage.
