When I start my car, it will stall out, not turn over or it will idle for a few seconds, then immediately shut off. I mean shut the whole car down so nothing electrical can work at which point my key will be stuck in the ignition and I cannot get it out. I am able to restart the car normally, however the steering wheel vibrates along with the body of my car while in motion and while parked. While making a left turn through a four way intersection, I lost control of my power steering and the wheel was stuck at first and then swung all the way back which spun my car around. This car has had 1 owner before me and I have kept up with all of my oil changes and tune ups. In September of 2018, I had a similar issue with the vibrating and was told that a cylinder was misfiring and that I needed a tune up. I spent $587 on these repairs. My vehicle was at 98,890 miles. It is May 2019 about 9 months later my vehicle is at 108,630 miles and I am having the same and additional issues not even 10,000 miles more. I have documentation from the mechanic from my cylinder repairs that I have requested to be faxed over to me.

The fuel pump is leaking and now will allow fuel to get from the fuel tank to the carburetor. It was parked for a few minutes and when returned to vehicle it wouldn't start. Have noticed the smell of raw fuel emitting from the vehicle prior to this incident.

The driver of the vehicle sustained a concussion and a back injury. A police report was filed of the incident. The vehicle was towed from the scene and inspected by investigators who could not determine the cause of the fire because the fuel tank was located in the rear of the vehicle.
