What owners wrote
While vehicle was parked in my driveway - for approximately 30 hours - it lost almost 1/2 tank of gas. Spouse (a mechanic for 25 years) identified an obvious fuel leak on the vehicle, but dealership inspection stated they found nothing, that there were no "codes" identified, thus no failure.
While driving vehicle was cut off. Consumer had to coast to the side of the road. Then, vehicle was towed. The fuel pump was found to be defective.
