Consumer Description

THE FIRST INCIDENT HAPPENED ON 05/01/06 AFTER DRIVING AT LEAST 30 MIN TO 45 MIN. AT A SPEED OF AROUND 50 MPH, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY DIAGNOSED A LOOSE GAS CAP. ON 5/22/06 AFTER DRIVING AGAIN AT LEAST 30 MIN TO 45 MIN. AFTER RETURNING HOME AND BACKING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY MY ESCAPE STALLED AND WOULD NOT START, AFTER ABOUT AN HOUR IT STARTED AGAIN DID NOT TAKE IT TO THE DEALER. THE THIRD INCIDENT HAPPENED MAY 30 AFTER DRIVING 30 MIN TO 45 MIN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY REPLACED THE VAPOR MANAGEMENT VALVE WHICH IS STILL NOT CORRECTING THE PROBLEM, SO THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT REPLACING THE FUEL TANK. THE DEALER HAS BEEN VERY HELPFUL, BUT AFTER FIVE YEARS I WOULD THINK I WOULD NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. *JB
