What owners say
Car stalls after filling tank ( not overfilling ) . Runs rough then stalls and power steering cuts out locks up on road.
Vehicle stalls or will not accelerate, engine runs rough, after filling up tank with gasoline. Problem goes away after several minutes of driving. Creates a dangerous and safety issue. Happens at every time fuel tank is filled. There seems to be many similar complaints on this same issue. The federal safety agency should investigate.
Shortly after refueling the vehicle, the vehicle stalls and upon restart runs rough for short time. We had one incident where a fuel leak developed after refueling. The stalling issue has almost caused my vehicle to be struck and clearly has caused a control issue when the vehicles engine loses power shuts down. The vehicle has been checked and no codes were triggered or stored. The manufacturer doesn't seem interested in addressing my issue.
Car stalls out at red lights, numerous similar problems on the web, no solution. No engine light comes on just runs rough when stopped and stalls out, afraid I am going to get reared. Garage cannot find problem.
