Consumer Description

WHEN ACCELERATING ANYTHING OVER BABYING IT THE VEHICLE'S EXHAUST EMITS A STRONG SULFUR (ROTTEN EGGS) ODOR. WHETHER THE WINDOWS ARE UP OR DOWN THE VEHICLE IS FILLED WITH THE AWFUL STENCH. WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN IT IS A MUCH STRONGER UNPLEASANT ODOR. P.S. THE INCIDENT DATE THAT I FIRST NOTICED THIS WAS 10 - 11 - 2008, BUT IT WILL ONLY LET ME GO UP TO 2007 ON THE SELECTION. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE THE DAY BEFORE. THE VEHICLE IS ALSO A 2008 MODEL, WHICH IS ALSO NOT AN OPTION TO SELECT. *TR
