Fuel leakage and fuel smells coming from fuel tanks, after fueling.
The consumer noticed that the gas gauge indicated that it needed fuel. However, the vehicle had fuel. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for inspection. The mechanic informed the consumer that the sending unit needed to be replaced.
1. The right front wheel weights flew off on the drive home from the dealer after purchase. The rear wheel weights flew off , first the left and then the right, while driving at night, slamming into the inner fender liners. The rear end began to bounce dramatically, as each wheel had over 4 ounces of weights on them. Wheels are the extra cost magnesium wheels. 2. On a trip, the gas gauge suddenly dropped to empty, from 3/4 full, and the dic alarm (low fuel) went on. Pulled into a gas station, thinking I was out of fuel. I could only put in 4 gallons! 3. Steering column lock would not release and could not steer car, but car did start and go into gear ! I think this is the most serious failure as one may not notice that the steering column lock was on and actually drive off, but when attempting to turn vehicle could only go straight, as straight into sombody!! help!!!! ref. In ea02-031.
