Typical fuel system symptoms owners report
- Fuel tank suddenly loses pressure or drains out, with owners smelling gas and finding fuel pooled on the ground after driving.
- After refueling, the engine cranks repeatedly and struggles to start, which some owners tie to poor tank venting.
- Exhaust odor builds up inside the cabin during both stationary idling and highway driving, worsening over time.
- Owners report the purge valve sticking open, which they say affects engine performance, fuel consumption, and triggers an EVAP-related check engine light (code P0456).
