After having the fuel pressure sensor gasket changed for the recall, I have had a strong fuel smell in the cabin. Taken to the dealer, spent nine weeks looking for the leak. They said they couldn't find it, but wanted me to pay $840 for gasket kit, but would not guarantee that it would fix it, next step would be to pull the engine at my expense...? Fire hazard !

The front windows have a serious wind noise issue in all earlier ls model( That's what the dealer told me) upgrades have been done to it by the dealer & the problem still exists. 2 other upgrades could be done but they'll reduce the wind noise by 15% & can't be eliminated! The design has a problem. Many people have complained about it on many websites like edmonds,... The wind noise is very annoying & distracting. Another problem with all these cars is the wheels that chip & plating comes off of them after a while.
