What owners wrote
Gas accelerating on it's on in a saturn ion 2007 causing wreck 2 times, fuse blew in power steering causing wreck 1 time.
Took my car to a GM dealer regarding the scent of gas in back of the car inc. In the trunk. While doing a scheduled maintenance, they didn't find anything. Took my vehicle to a different dealer and the smell of gas had gotten worse. There was no stain in my driveway. Once the gas tank was moved and then removed, the puddling of gas on the top of the tank was prevalent. Looking closer, the plastic was cracked that was apart of the module.
