Owner report 11354539 · 2020-09-12 (September 12, 2020)
OUTBOARD REAR SEATBELTS DO NOT EXTEND OR RETRACT. SO MY KIDS CANNOT RIDE IN IT. FUEL TANK ISSUE INVOLVES EXTREMELY HIGH VAPOR BUILDUP. WHEN I TAKE THE CAP OFF TO ADD FUEL, VAPOR PRESSURE IS SO BAD THAT IT HAS BLOWN THE CAP OUT OF MY HAND WHEN REMOVING IT. CAP HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH A OEM REPLACEMENT WITH NO CHANGE IN PRESSURE. NO DIFFERENCE IF THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN STATIONARY OR DRIVEN FOR EXTENDED PERIODS IN EITHER CASE.
