Consumer Description

ON JULY 2ND, I LOOKED WHERE MY CANYON WAS PARKED AND FOUND A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF DIESEL FUEL ON THE GROUND. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, I FOUND FUEL ALL OVER THE UNDERSIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND A SEVER LEAK FROM A HOSE. THE HOSE WAS RUBBING ON A CAN COMING FROM THE AC COMPRESSOR. THE VEHICLE DOES NOT LEAK WHEN PARKED (OTHER THAN DRIPPING) BUT LOOSES SIGNIFICANT FUEL WHEN IDLING OR DRIVING. THIS ISSUE LIKELY STARTED A FEW DAYS AGO BUT WAS NOT DISCOVERED UNTIL 7/2. THE FUEL ITSELF IS CLOSE TO SEVERAL HOT COMPONENTS INCLUDING THE TRANSMISSION, EXHAUST AND TRANSFER CASE.
