| There is a strong sulfur smell in the cabin after a hard acceleration, it smells similar to catalytic converter exhaust odor. service department was able to replicate the odor but told me that they do not know how to fix the problem. | |||
| ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING - EXHAUST SYSTEM - MANIFOLD/HEADER/MUFFLER/TAIL PIPE | |||

| There were two occurrences. on 7/5/12, the flex was parked but still running, we raised the rear door/tailgate to remove items from the flex. one of my 4 year old daughters stood near the back bumper area and received a burn to her leg from one of the exhaust pipes creating a c shape imprint of the tailpipe opening. this was witnessed by a hotel employee. the adult leaned in to the vehicle many times, but did not burn. on 7/6/12, the flex was parked and not running. again, the back door/tailgate was raised and we were getting items out of the vehicle and getting ready for our event. even after warning (of the tailpipe), the same 4 year old managed to receive another burn to the same leg from the exhaust/tail pipe. *tr | |||
