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.
Consumer states the vehicle would not start, dealer said timing belt broke and caused the crank sensor and timing sensor to break, however after repairs the vehicle still would not start, consumer was informed that the problem was not with the starter, but possibly with the head.
Fuel tank has developed cracks and a fuel smell is present. 1) in Dec 2000 and Mar 2001 fuel tank replaced because of cracks on top of fuel tank; 2) in April 2001 service for recall 00V314001 was performed; 3) in October 2001 fuel was leaking from a seal between fuel tank and a pipe, leading to engine, resulting in fuel tank being replaced for fourth time and 4) in November 2001 fuel smell was present again and dealership was diagnosing the problem. The fuel gauge operation stays on full then drops drastically due to fuel sender/pump failure. The dealer replaced the gas tank cap. The check engine light comes on due to purge valve failure. Consumer was asking for reimbursement.
