What owners report
There is no incident, however I would like to report a manufacturer problem. Many manufacturers put vehicles on the market with front headlights that are too bright and not aimed properly. See [XXX] There are regulations for the lumens of headlights and system of reflectors, but I assume manufacturers are not be watched for violations. Where I live, in Sarasota, FL, I am blinded by all the vehicle lights at night because lights appear to be on bright when they aren't. Something is very wrong. I don't think everyone is having aftermarket LED lights installed. I think they are coming from the manufacturers that way. Can you help? INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORM
.
I NEED TO KNOW IT MY VEHICLE HAS ANY RECALLS I'M HAVING SOME MAJOR SAFETY CONCERNS ABOUT IT.
AFTER THE ENGINE WARMS UP AND AT SPEEDS AROUND 45-50 THE ACCELERATION STICKS AS IF THE CRUISE CONTROL IS ON. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP IT IS TO PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL THEN DRIVE,OR SHUT THE ENGINE OFF. I DISCONNECTED THE SERVO TO THE CRUISE CONTROL TO ELIMINATE THE CRUISE AS THE CAUSE. THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT BUT OCCURS OFTEN.
FUEL RAIL IS LEAKING GASOLINE. THERE IS A PRESSURE DAMPER THAT IS ON THE RAIL THAT IS NON SERVICEABLE AND IT IS LEAKING FUEL ONTO RAIL THAT IS CAUSING THE SMELL TO ENTER THE CABIN. DEALER SAYS FUEL RAIL NEEDS TO BE REPLACED TO EFFECT PROPER REPAIR. FUEL LEAKS ANY TIME ENGINE IS RUNNING.
