    We noticed a strong fuel smell in our garage and took our car in for service. We were told the fuel tank had rotted out and was leaking fuel. The entire gas tank needed to be replaced (about $2100). We were told by the mechanic that this wasn't uncommon and would "most likely" happen again with the new tank. We have since traded the car in for a new vehicle. *tr

    The vehicle stalls at low speeds and at red lights and stop signs without warning and without great consistency. This happens multiple times per day/trip with no resolution. Dealer and independent mechanic cannot identify the problem as no codes are thrown when it happens and it restarts after stalling. This is a significant safety issue. *tr

Over the past 6 months there have been numerous incidents where my vehicle, upon returning to speed or entering a roadway/highway, or otherwise entering a roadway, it has made a noise, a sudden jerk, seem to hold speed (fail to increase speed) and seems to feel like it is failing to changed gears (appears to rev in rpms…
