The fuel level is not accurate. It first started doing this telling me I had a 1/4 tank left, when I ran out of gas in the middle of an interstate. I then put gas in it and sure enough that's what it was. Ever since then the car never gives accurate readings, I can fill all the way up and it will only show that it is 3/4 full or such but never is precise. This can be a very big issue for someone that does not have a gas station nearby like it happened to me.
This morning the car was warming up in front of our house ; it exploded and burned down; the front is completely melted; we were lucky not to have entered the car yet - fire department was called and managed to extinguish the fire before it reached the tank - other wise we would all be dead and our house gone.
Sudden failure of throttle body assembly. Dealer says it "broke" and he has never heard of this happening. Although I consider this to be a fuel supply failure, the auto warranty did not cover repairs claiming it was an "emissions part" and not covered. Cost $530.92 to repair.
