Consumer Description

THE TAILPIPE OCCASIONALLY EMITS BLUE-GRAY SMOKE, AS IF IT IS BURNING OIL. I HAVE WITNESSED THIS WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT OCCASIONALLY SMELLS LIKE SMOKE. THE PASSENGERS IN THE REAR OF THE CAR TEND TO NOTICE IT FIRST, AND THEN THE PASSENGERS IN THE FRONT CAN SMELL IT. IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHEN ACCELERATING AT A HIGH RATE, SUCH AS WHEN ENTERING A HIGHWAY FROM AN ON-RAMP.
