Failed component; fuel indicatorthe digital fuel indicator is not reading accurately. Fuel indicator shows more fuel than what is actually available in the tank.- at only 1/4 full tank, teh indicator still shows as 3/4 full.- when filling the tank (5.4 gal capacity) at appx 1/4 full (or appx 1.3 gal), the tank accepts appx 4 gal of fuel.- this reflect an error of appx 60% less more fuel than actually available.- this inaccuracy can cause engine stalling and a possible accident.- manufacturer should provide a correction/fix to have this reading be accurate to ~10% or some acceptable standard, not a 60% error.
Failed component: speedometer.the speedometer on this vehicle is highly in accurate. At may roadways (40 to 55mph) and highway speeds (up to 85 in some states). At these speeds, the speedometer is over by as much as 10 to 12 mph or as much as 15%.measured against gps, other vehicles, and point-to-point timing.this has several effects:- when traveling on roads with minimum speed limits, one could be traveling slower than pasted- traveling in highways at posted speeds, one is traveling less than what the speedometer says and could be overtaken by another vehicle.- odometer is overstated over thousands of miles. Vehicles shows more mileage than actual, therefore devaluation. I.e. At 25k miles, the vehicle would be stating as 2k to 2.5k more/extra miles than actual.- the extra miles could expire warranty earlier than what is expected.this issue needs to be addressed. Manufacturers have to provide calibration to a more acceptable range - ~2% to 3%. Most vehicles are within these standards.
