Sudden unintended acceleration: while driving up the inclining driveway to my dr. Office for my covid vaccine, all of a sudden, my car accelerated as if someone stomped on my gas pedal! Had i not turned right into the parking lot, i would have crashed, head-on into a stone retaining wall. I pushed on the brakes to slow down and stop as i was steering my car into a parking space. This was a terrifying experience for which i had zero control. My car continued to propel forward and surge with such power that it plowed into a “safely parking boulder” which rolled down the hill. This caused my car to go airborne off a steep embankment, sideswiped a tree (airborne), landed on another part of the driveway and continued to propel forward and part way back up the hill! All this occurred while my foot was on the brake pedal! It is a miracle that i am alive and that i didn’t injure or kill someone in the process. I was wearing my seatbelt and my dog were in the car. They appear to me ok. However, neither of the airbags deployed! I am again grateful to be alive. My car was totaled, but i would not feel safe even if it were repaired. I survived this time, but maybe not the next time. I definitely want this documented for safety purposes! Thank you!

Recently, my vehicle was found to have a rusted fuel filler neck. The rusting is toward to "top", well away from road salt and water. The problem is causing fuel fumes to escape, including directly into the passenger compartment. In my case, a full tank of fuel causes the interior fumes to be so strong that the car can not be driven. A search for a replacement filler neck showed the part is on national back-order, leading one to suspect that the problem is common.

Car has fuel fumes very strong smelling in car. I look on this as a safety problem for me and the kids travelling in my car. But i guess people has to die first before any action is taken like the boeing airlines. The car is overheating and tgey cannot tell you why it is doing it.

Serious, health hazard and a very dangerous problem arise with my smelling gasoline in the interior of car. It happens when tank is full and as soon as it drops to about 3/4 it stops, imagine the tank is full and the fumes are saturated in the car. The smell is overwhelming.Even with the windows cracked. Very very dangerous. Why is there not a recall when on line a large population of people has the problem. Or does a couple cars have to explode with the gasoline issue before a recall is done. This needs immediate attention. Thanks as long as the tank is full it smells whether it is parked or moving. Would be afraid to go on highway for fear of explosion.
