While driving our 2006 I noticed after stopping at a store and got back in it was hard to start. It finally did start, this had never happened before. As I was driving I noticed the gas gauge had moved from 3/4 of a tank to 1/2. I thought maybe I just looked at it wrong. But by the next stop light I was down to 1/4 tank. By this time I was closed to home, so when got home and got of the car I noticed a trail of gas behind me. I looked under the car and gas was pouring down from the gas tank on top of exhaust. How it didn't catch on fire I have no idea. I found that the gad line from the fuel pump to the main gas line had rusted and under pressure it blew. Thank god we dint give this car to our granddaughter as we were in the process of doing.

I'm having a few issues with my car. Some of the issues I'm having are: my lighting/headlights, my fuel lines are completely rusted out and cause gas to leak from my vehicle, it sometimes will not start or turn all the way over, and the brakes on my car. I have looked up some recalls for my specific type of car and some of them match the issues of which I'm currently having. All of the issues I have are very dangerous and would be dangerous for other drivers around me.

Fuel pump failed when starting the vehicle. The repair shop has reported scorch marks on the fuel pump assembly, and a melted/fused screen. He tells me that the failure/short could have caused an explosion.

Brought car into dealer as engine light was on. Dealer explained to me that I needed a new gas cap ($200). Did not fix problem and when returned to dealership I was told that I needed to replace the gas tank as it was rotted. I had owned the vehicle for a year but how does a 6 year old car have a rotted gas tank? Dealership (balise toyota, springfield, ma) claimed "well that is new england for ya". I am over 70 years old and have owned a number of cars in new england over the years, none of which have ever had a rotted gas tank.
