What owners wrote
Lost control of vehicle which resulted in a front end collision. My speed was about 45 MPH at time of impact. Vehicle ignited instantly. The flames were coming from under the hood, closest to the windshield on the passenger side. Was prompted by a relative to file a complaint. I was told that the vehicle should not have burned and should have had a cut-off for fuel line. The vehicle was totally consumed and exploded within what seemed like 5-15 min.
The fuel gauge does not work and results in the check engine light remaining on. It is difficult to know how much gas is in the tank (must track miles). But, more importantly, the 'check engine' light may be masking a real problem that I am not aware off.
