What owners wrote

Fuel vapor line became detached causing fuel leak in close proximity to exhaust pipe which created a potential fire hazard. I repaired this defect by using a clamp to secure the line back to fuel tank. There are two of these vapor lines that are on each end of the tank and they are not secured with clamps from the factory. With the aging of the rubber vapor line it can become lose and when pressure in the fuel tank increases it can cause the one of the lines to pop off.

April 2002 Fire

The catalytic converter was replaced on a NHTSA recall. However, problem recurred, per the dealer. Manufactured was contacted, and consumer has been informed that recalls were a one time repair at no cost. No recalls for the part mentioned.

Reported at 60,000 miles, July 1999
