| Description of the problem | I live in a temperate climate and use this vehicle predominantly for short, side street trips while the vehicle is in economy mode (econ button). When used solely in this manor for a period of months, the oil and exhaust have a strong stench of unburned gasoline. The fumes inside the cabin that build up in between vehicle uses can get very strong. So much so that on numerous occasions after getting into the car i felt dizzy, disoriented and sick to my stomach. A vehicle that can build up noxious fumes inside the cabin that make you disoriented and sick is not safe or healthy. If a driver is unaware that their state of mind has been altered by the fumes (dui?), it could lead to an accident or worse. Not only should nhtsa open an safety investigation into this matter, but environmental impact and health studies should be conducted by the epa to ascertain what other hazards are at play here. Date of incident and mileage listed is arbitrary, as this is an ongoing safety hazard. |
