Description of the problem | Takata recall. I have several complaints: (1)the key in the ignition switch doesn't want to turn and once turn the car off, it's hard to remove the key. This problem has been going on for over a year, but it's getting worse. (2) i have also been smelling gas, for at the past 2 years. This was reported to the dealer on one of the maintenance's trip. I was told to just put a higher octane of gas, instead of the 87 octane i was currently using. I started using 89 octane and still smelling the gas. (3) when driving you can fill the vehicle changing gears. |
