Consumer complained about fuel spilling on to the top of engine. He took vehicle to the dealer, and was told that the problem pertained to the nylon fuel connectors. Mechanic determined that fuel connectors cracked because of the pressure on the nylon. Consumer was told by the dealer that there was a recall on this problem, but that this vehicle was not included in the recall due to VIN. Also, transmission problems. When putting vehicle in reverse it slammed, causing the transmission to fail or skip. Consumer took vehicle to the dealer, and was told that the linkage needed to be replaced.
