Por esa razón, lo maneje por semanas sabiendo que tenía algo mal. Cuando el olor del gas me empezó a marear y dar dolores de cabeza, sabía que ya no pude esperar más.
¿Que tenia? Tenía un problema que les pasa con varios otros modelos con 120,000 millas o más. El anillo torodial de goma se deshizo y la pompa de gas empezó a fallar. Hizo un hueco que dejo salir el gas del combustible al interior del auto…una situación muy peligrosa. No lo pensé porque sabía que no tenía el dinero para la reparación.
