1)fuel gauge inoperable 3 weeks after purchasing the vehicle (always reads empty). Attempt # 3 to correct problem scheduled tomorrow. 2) popping /crackling noise from rubber gaskets at doors. Service people say it is normal, however many complaints from others on the net.
I was driving for 500 miles one go, the weather temperature was 93f I had smelled gas I stopped the vehicle and checked I found the gas tank has melted due to heat comes from the muffler runs under the right side of the tank, good news the gas was is not that hot to ignite and burn, I wonder how the tank material could melt in this condition it has to stand the expected temperature.
My wife was turning into our garage when the engine suddenly reved up causing her to crash into several items in the garage (air compressor,gas grill,shop vac,shelving, and other things)pushing them against the back wall before stopping and allowing her to turn the car off. She had the brake fully depressed and the steering wheel turned but had no control. The car is a 2006 Honda Pilot with about 170,000 miles.
