Consumer smelled a strong gasoline smell. Consumer looked under car and noticed a nice flow of gas coming from the top of the feul tank on to the ground. Consumer indicated that there was so much gas on the ground that it would have been dangerous to start, and because it was so close to exhaust pipe.

The vehicle was purchased used in 1998. Shifting always seemed a problem. Ten months after the purchase, the vehicle started hesitating at high speeds. The fuel system was checked a number of times and it was later determined that it was a transmission problem. While the dealer was test driving the vehicle, the vehicle was involved in an accident. The transmission was replaced. It lasted about one month and the replaced transmission was replaced with the current transmission which is the third one in this automobile. Two months later, a hesitation was noted at low speeds when the gas tank was below half full and taking a left turn. The car is currently having the fuel pump and sending unit replaced.
Due to the defective airflow sensor which has been replace 3xs, the vehicle stalls unexpectly which may result in an accident. Dealer cannot determine the problem.
When at any speed the overdrive light keeps coming on, and the gear shifts very hard, the vehicle jerks/ shakes. Also, there is some type of fuel leakage coming from under the vehicle.
