What owners wrote
The brackets that hold the gas tank up are corroded , also the tank is leaking. Consumer states gas tank has rusted, the hinges on driver and passenger side were also found to be rusted, consumer contacted dealership and was told vehicle was out of warranty and consumer would be responsible for repairs, consumer received a call from delarship and was advised the repairs would be done free of charge.
Intermitently random stalling. Car will not start for a few minutes. Then, everything seems okay, and car runs fine. Consumer isoalted problem to fuel pump relay inside "constant control" relay box. Replacing this module completely corrected problem. You can isolate this problem by putting a volt-meter on input and output of relay. Then, when problem occurs, the input will be high (12v), but there will be no output from relay, proving bad relay. I have kept this module if wanted for testing/inspection.
