| Description of the problem | There's a fuel issue, as you top off the gas drive it a half a mile the car jerks and shuts off steering wheel locks up, after a few times of it happening after fueling the car up. Its dangerous and a safety issue. Looked it up and a bunch of people with my model had the same issue and it has to due with fuel getting in the evap chamber which requires a full tank replacement reported from multiple owners of my model. Which is an emissions and safety issue. Its in motion less than a mile after fueling completely when it jerks then stalls. |
