Consumer Description
BURNING SMELL EMANATING FROM EXHAUST AREA INTO CABIN AT 9800 MILES. TERRIBLE - CAN SMELL IT ON THE OUTSIDE FROM 25 FEET AWAY. THE STENCH INSIDE THE BACK SEAT OF THE CABIN IS ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU GAG. CAR IS ONLY 100 MILES OVERDUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE (3100 MILES) RUNNING MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDED OIL WEIGHT. CAR HAS HAD TROUBLE SINCE I BOUGHT IT - BUT MOSTLY EXTERNAL UNTIL NOW (PEELING PAINT). *CB
