Consumer Description

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 JAGUAR S-TYPE. THE CONTACT SMELLED A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT, ESPECIALLY AFTER PLACING FUEL IN THE VEHICLE. OCCASIONALLY, THE ODOR WOULD BE SO INTENSE THAT IT WOULD GIVE HER AND THE OTHER OCCUPANTS A HEADACHE. SHE TOOK HER VEHICLE TO A DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE MUFFLER SYSTEM. IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE REPAIR, THE ODOR RETURNED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT HER VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 06E056000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE), EVEN THOUGH THE FAILURES WERE IDENTICAL. THE CONTACT WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR COSTS. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 100,000. UPDATED
