1. Fuel leaks from injector onto engine (fire hazard) 2. Ignition switch cranks engine without turning the key to the start position. 3. Loud screeching noise comes from engine compartment while in park and neutral, this is the same noise the car makes when cranking the engine. Sounds as if the starter is hanging on something (like the flywheel or something). I'm not a mechanic but do have enough knowledge to know this is not right and could be a safety hazard.

Fuel system, gasoline: fuel injection system
- What is wrong
- Vehicle description: passenger vehicles built with 3.5l engines. The fuel injection delivery system can leak fuel from some of the sealing o-rings or from hair line cracks in the thermoset fuel injection rail.
- Risk
- Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source can result in a fire.
- Remedy
- Dealers will replace the fuel rail o-rings and reinforce the outlet (passenger) side fuel rail. Vehicles showing fuel leakage on the outlet fuel rail must have the outlet rail replaced which includes changing the upper and lower injector o-rings. However, if a vehicle is leaking fuel from the o-rings or from a cracked fuel line, the vehicle should be taken into a dealer to have this repaired as soon as possible.
