ENGINE
MY ENGINE IS MAKING A RATTLING NOISE WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE PARKED. I WAS ORIGINALLY TOLD THE NOISE WAS PROBABLY MY EXHAUST SYSTEM BUT WAS LATER ON TOLD THAT I WOULD NEED TO REPLACE THE ENGINE. THIS VEHICLE ONLY HAS 138,000 MILES ON IT AND MAINTENANCE HAS BEEN DONE ONLY AT DEALERSHIPS. THE RATTLING NOISE IS EITHER RODS THAT NEED TO BE REPACED OR A TIMING CHAIN.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
TRAVELING ON FREEWAY AT 60 MPH WHEN ENGINE STOPPED. THIS CREATED A SIGNIFICANT HAZARD AS I HAD TO CROSS FOUR LANES OF HEAVY TRAFFIC TO GET TO THE SHOULDER WITH NO POWER. AFTER TOW, IT WAS ORIGINALLY DIAGNOSED AS A FAILED FUEL PUMP. IT WAS SUBSEQUENTLY DISCOVERED THAT, THOUGH THE GAS GAUGE READ 1/3 FULL, THE TANK WAS ACTUALLY EMPTY. THE DEALERSHIP HAD TO REMOVE THE GAS TANK TO REPLACE THE FAULTY FUEL SENSOR.

TAKATA RECALL, IT HAS BEEN ABOUT A YEAR, MAYBE MORE, SINCE I GOT THE FIRST FLYER TO HAVE MY AIR BAG REPLACED. I HAVE GOT MORE OVER THE MONTHS. EVERY TIME, I CALL IN AND TRY TO ARRANGE AN APPOINTMENT I AM TOLD THAT THEY ARE GOING OUT IN WAVES AND THAT I WILL BE NOTIFIED WHEN I CAN GET THIS POTENTIALLY LETHAL AIR BAG REPLACED. THEN MORE TIME GOES BY I GET ANOTHER FLYER AND THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN, WITH NO RESOLUTION. I FIND IT A BIT UNSETTLING THAT THAT PROCESS WOULD TAKE THIS LONG AND LEAVE CUSTOMERS STUCK WITH POTENTIALLY DEADLY VEHICLES.
