Consumer Description

Vehicle started making noises from the gas cap like vacuum noises. After refueling, car seem like it was having problems starting. After letting it sit for a couple minutes at the gas station, the car cranked but started putting like it wanted to turn off. Got to a red light and car suddenly turned off. Message shown on dash : Auto StartStop disabled. Manual Start Required. Car still wouldn’t crank. Got a scanner hooked up to the car and it said Evap Purge Solenoid Valve. There were recalls on this type of problem but not the same engine size. This could have caused a fatal accident had traffic been moving.
