1991 Mercury Tracer fuel system complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 14 of 14, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Started to smell gas and noticed fuel leaks coming from the bottom of the driver's rear side. Took the vehicle to a private mechanic and the mechanic called marstaller motors. Marstaller motors said because of the age of the vehicle that they will not be able to honor the recall. Please describe details.
The fuel pump had an electrical short, causing the gas to spill over the engine, the wiring from the gas tank would melt together which it could of cause a fire.
When gas tank is filled the rear of the vehicle has a gasoline odor.
