Typical fuel system symptoms owners report

  • Engine shuts off at a stop light when the auto idle-stop system engages, then fails to restart when the driver releases the brake.
  • Vehicle stalls unexpectedly in traffic, sometimes requiring the driver to fully power the van off and on to regain movement.
  • Some owners describe a rough or delayed restart, including a dangerous forward lurch when the engine does come back on.
  • A raw gasoline odor is reported inside the cabin, particularly over bumps or rough pavement, though dealers could not find a leak.
  • Electrical warning messages such as 'problem detected' appear alongside clicking sounds similar to a dead battery when the engine won't restart.
  • Owners report the stalling and no-restart pattern recurring multiple times per week even on vehicles less than two years old.
