| Description of the problem | Fuel tank has a crack in the seam on the top of the tank which is right underneath the back seat. Entire fuel has to be replaced at a cost of $1319. It must be replaced for safety reasons. The cause is faulty manufacturing as this car has never been in an accident. If we had been in an accident it could have resulted in an explosion endangering my children who sit in the back seat. The mechanic said that it has to be a faulty tank due to the crack being in the seam. |
