STARTED SMELLING EXHAUST FUMES IN THE CABIN OF THE TRUCK. SHORTLY AFTER THIS BEGAN, THE TRUCK EXHAUST STARTED GETTING LOUDER. DEALER DIAGNOSED AS CRACKED EXHAUST MANIFOLD. COST OVER $1,000 TO REPAIR. DEALER WOULD NOT WARRANTY. *TT

JUST AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE ON DECEMBER 29, 2008, I NOTICED THE ENGINE HAS ACCELERATED AND THE CAR SURGES FORWARD WHEN STOPPED. IF I DO NOT KEEP MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, THERE IS A HIGH POTENTIAL OF SURGING INTO THE BACK OF A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. AN ACCIDENT HAS ALMOST HAPPENED MANY TIMES. I HAVE HAD IT LOOKED AT BY THE DEALER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM ON FEBRUARY 4,2009 AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NOT A PROBLEM. IT MOST LIKELY WILL "NOT BE A PROBLEM" UNTIL I REAR END SOMEONE WHILE STOPPED. THIS CONTINUES TO HAPPEN ON A REGULAR BASIS, A YEAR AND A HALF LATER. I WAS NOT AWARE I HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO REPORT UNTIL THE TOYOTA RECALL HAPPENED. I HAVE BEEN LIVING WITH IT, ANTICIPATING THE SURGE EVERY TIME I AM AT A STOP. *TR

#10244326 | October 3, 2008

WHEN I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE 2 MONTHS AGO, I THOUGHT THE GAS GAUGE WAS EMPTY UPON PURCHASE, AS IT WAS A USED CAR, BUT NO IT IS THE FUEL SYSTEM PROBLEM THAT EVERYBODY KEEPS MENTIONING. I FILL THE VEHICLE, AND IT ONLY SHOWS A HALF TANK. THEN IT WILL GO TO EMPTY WITH THE WARNING LIGHT COMING ON. AS SOMEONE WHO TRAVELS A LOT, AND FOR LONG DISTANCES, THIS IS A HORRIBLE DEFECT. THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD HAS BECOME LOUD, WHICH MEANS ANOTHER EXPENSE ON A 2005 WHICH SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. WHENEVER THE CONTACT STARTED THE VEHICLE, SHE NOTICED THAT THE EXHAUST SYSTEM WAS VERY LOUD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL MECHANIC SHOP AND THEY STATED THAT THERE WAS A CRACK IN THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. THE VEHICLE WAS ALSO DIAGNOSED BY THE DEALER FOR THE SAME FAILURE. THE CONTACT DID NOT NOTICE ANY DIFFERENCES BEFOREHAND. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 68,239 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 54,100.
