FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:SWITCH
1. FUEL LEAKS FROM INJECTOR ONTO ENGINE (FIRE HAZARD) 2. IGNITION SWITCH CRANKS ENGINE WITHOUT TURNING THE KEY TO THE START POSITION. 3. LOUD SCREECHING NOISE COMES FROM ENGINE COMPARTMENT WHILE IN PARK AND NEUTRAL, THIS IS THE SAME NOISE THE CAR MAKES WHEN CRANKING THE ENGINE. SOUNDS AS IF THE STARTER IS HANGING ON SOMETHING (LIKE THE FLYWHEEL OR SOMETHING). I'M NOT A MECHANIC BUT DO HAVE ENOUGH KNOWLEDGE TO KNOW THIS IS NOT RIGHT AND COULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD.*AK

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
CAR HAS BEEN TOTALED. IT APPEARED TO BE IN PERFECT CONDITION BEFORE THE SUDDEN INCIDENT. I WANT TO KNOW IF A RECALLED COMPONENT MAY HAVE BEEN RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION AND LOSS OF CONTROL. AUTO ALSO HIT 2 PARKED CARS AND LIFTED A ROCK (APPROX. 500 LBS) OUT OF THE GROUND DURING THE ACCIDENT. THE DRIVERS DOOR LOCKED ON ITS OWN, WHILE THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR FLEW OPEN ON ITS OWN. THE AUTOMATIC WINDOWS BLEWOUT DURING THE INCIDENT. THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED WHILE BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE AT LOW SPEED. MECHANICAL DEFECT IS MOST LIKELY THE CAUSE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE.*AK
