Fuel/Propulsion System
I started my car and noticed a gasoline smell. Drivers side door was open. While the car was still running i stepped around to check the exhaust and noticed liquid pouring from underneath my car on the drivers side near the rear wheel. I realized this was gasoline coming from somewhere near the gas tank. It only poured out when it the cars ignition was in the the 2nd position and running - meaning while the fuel…

Vehicle hesitates under acceleration. Sometimes almost stalling. I feel this is not safe for my son at times. Merging etc. I called honda service and they said they have had this issue come up with other people. They said it had to do with the econ mode. I drove the car with it off and still does it at times. Very concerned. I am taking it in to find out what is going on. Not good!

This problem was not evident during the pre-purchase test drive because the vehicle did not have the gas tank full. However, upon driving the vehicle off the dealer lot post purchase, and during the entire subsequent ownership period, the vehicle exhibited relatively loud thud / knocking noise coming from the rear/fuel tank area upon stopping in urban driving conditions with gas tank full to half empty. The sound…

Upon stepping on accelerator the vehicle hesitates for 3-4 seconds before picking up speed. When taken to the dealer, i am told it is a 2 footed driver issue and nothing they can be done. I have left it 24 hours and been told, 'no problem found'. I…
