I am having continuous problems with losing power between 1500 and 3000 rpms at any speed. The car will sputter and jerk then once out of the range of 3000 RPM the car seems to regain the power that it didn't have earlier. The electric system has never shut down completely and the check engine light has only come on three times then gone off again not to return until months later. I have not had an accident related to this problem yet. But I am afraid that one time I will be trying to get across an intersection and I will lose power and get hit.

While driving at any speed the vehicle would back fire and misfire. The vehicle has been to the dealer twice for this problem. On one occasion the dealer replaced the fuel pump and fuel regulator, but the vehicle still didn't run properly. The manufacturer is aware of the problem.

Major fuel leak on top of my engine from the fuel delivery system. I am replacing this componet today...my mechanic was visible shaken when he saw the gushing of gasoline from the delivery system. He said I would have a fire anytime...bad system.
