What owners say
Occasional smell of gasoline within the passenger compartment area, usually when max A/C is engaged. Smell goes away prior to having checked by dealer. Dealer advise that it can't be checked if it doesn't smell when brought to dealership. Occurs several times a year since purchase.
Egr has been replaced twice since 1999 when I bought the vehicle. I just had the egr valve replaced yesterday and today the check engine light is back on and the nasty smell of exhaust/fuel is back in my vehicle. I also had the catalytic converter. Replaced two weeks ago. Vehicle runs rough and stalls without notice. Safety hazard! I have two small baby's and fear for their safety because of breathing in exhaust/fuel and vehicle stalling whenever. Mdh in virginia.
