“Tire separated from rim causing sudden air loss. Occurred on parkway exit leading to loss of control of vehicle which said hello to a guard rail. Vehicle damage. Assumed it was my fault until it occurred three other times, four total, on three different vehicles with three different general tire models on three different types of wheels. *tr”Owner report · Tires · Feb 2012

“I ordered a super sized drink that was too large to fit in the cup holder, so I sat the drink in the center console to keep it stabile while I drove home. A car drove thru the stop sign without stopping and I had to make a sudden stop and the drink tipped over in the console. I removed the console thinking I can wipe off whatever I can wipe off , let the area air dry for a day or two then put it back together and it would be alright. However, the light remained on while driving. *tr”Owner report · Air Bags · Aug 2011

“Smell the odor of gasoline at times around the car. Very lucky no fire. Found two pin wholes that only leak when the fuel vapor pressure inside the tank comes up. One pin whole slightly to the driver's side of the exhaust pipe but spraying toward the exhaust pipe. The other pin hole is above the exhaust pipe heat shield spraying onto the body and draining down on to the exhaust pipe heat shield. Purchased car new, never been in an accident, no road damage to tank, never operated in a salt environment, no rust. Just found today -- have not repaired. *tr”Owner report · Fuel System, Gasoline · Jan 2009
