| Description of the problem | When i was sitting in a drive thru a man came up to me and told me that gasoline was pouring out from under my car. I drove the car home and by the time i got home the fuel smell was overwhelming and i had lost the 1/2 tank of gas that i had. Had the car towed to the dealership and was told that rodents had eaten through my soy based fuel lines. When i asked why there wasn't a recall for this, i was told that it was not a safety hazard. I totally disagree! If someone had thrown a cigarette out at the drive thru or as i drove home, i would have gone up in flames. |
