What owners wrote

I was dropping off my fiancée to her doctor appointment and while driving to park the car started to smoke profusely. I was unable to tell at first, but I quickly realized that there was a flame spouting from between the front windshield and underneath the hood of the car. I jumped out of the car and grabbed both my [XXX] and [XXX] out of the car and immediately started running towards the office. We weren't even a full 7ft away before the car was fully engulfed by the flames.

April 2026 Fire

Strong fuel smell coming from rear of vehicle. Fuel is leaking slightly at seam and has strong vapor smells. Hasn't been overfilled. I can not park the vehicle in the garage anymore due to the danger of the vapors. This needs to be addressed before someone gets hurt or killed. To many people have already complained on this issue, so why has a recall not been issued?
