While driving, began to smell odor of fuel in the cabin. Pulled to side of road, opened hood to witness fuel supply line to rear fuel injector rail leaking on to top of engine. Fuel continued to leak onto engine even after I shut off the car.

What 1995 Buick Riviera owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Transmission would hesitate and lose power while driving. Manufacturer was notified. Feel free to provide any further information.
The car was shut off and parked with keys out. The car began to roll with no occupant and eventually hit a truck. The keys will come out of the ignition in any gear causing the car to roll if not completely in park, a very dangerous situation. The manufacturer was contacted and they say it is a maintenance issue. In addition the car seems to be loosing 2nd gear, car vibrates and makes noises at lower speeds.
Transmission locked up while driving and could not be shifted into neutral. This could have caused a crash. Mechanic stated inside of transmission looked like it exploded and needed to be replaced. No prior warning. *ak
