| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I noticed an odd noise which sounded like something rolling around in the back of the car, but nothing was. at time of state inspection, i alerted the inspectors. they felt something bumping from within the gas tank. i disassembled the floor coverings and inspection ports for fuel pump and gauge sender. i removed the gauge sender and looked into the tank and observed a plastic bowl-like object surrounding the fuel pump. i rocked the car and this bowl would slosh against the pump. this object appears to be a baffle to reduce sloshing around the pump. it would seem that it was intended to be glued in place, but has broken loose. i suppose that this would eventually damage pump or tank. a new tank will cost close to $400 which i will now order. additional problem is intermittent failure of anti-lock brake/tracs system module.*jb |
