    There is an issue with starting the car after fueling up the car every time for past 6-8 months. Car appears to not be getting fuel and I have to keep pressing the accelerator pedal to try and start the car making it sound like I could potentially flood the engine. I was told this might have something to do with there being no gas cap on this model. It is unsafe as it sometimes causes the vehicle to not start or stall after starting when pulling away from the gas pump. This…

    The car sputters while driving and jolts especially during take offs. When took it to dealership they said they tried everything there was nothing they could do to fix it.

Car has less than 70,000 miles on it. I take great care of it. Was one of my favorite cars until a problem occurred…
