| I smelled gas inside the car after parking. could see no visible leaks at first. on june 12 could see fluid dripping from midway under car, made service appointment with dealership to repair vehicle. they diagnosed problem as a rusted fuel line under the drivers seat. service department estimated cost at $2,100.00 dollars for replacing fuel line and front and rear brakes. seemed reluctant to do repair of fuel line, mentioning how the brake lines are also located next to the fuel lines, length of time ordering parts and how complicated the repair is along with the rust in that location. looking for repair shop to do the repair to avoid a fire. *tr | |||

| While driving the car dragged, and when getting off the gas it slowed down really hard and started jerking y badly. took it to a shop, and the computer read that air was getting in the gas, or something like that. they said it could be a number of things, but it was a manufacturing problem. finally, i took the car to get fixed, and the mechanic won't fix it because there was nothing wrong with it. what do i do. *ak | |||
