My vehicle started with a noise on Thursday. Thursday night it started to rev on its own. Friday morning, it continued to rev. Then the vehicle slowed down, ultimately stopping. Turned car off. Then on and would not move in any gear.
THIS OCCURRED IN A DRIVEWAY UPON START-UP OF VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE REFUSED TO START DURING CRANKING OF ENGINE. DEALERSHIP WAS CONTACTED FOR ADVICE, THEY RECOMMENDED TO JUMP THE VEHICLE. DIRECTIONS WERE FOLLOWED WITH HOOD IN THE OPEN POSITION AND FUEL WAS OBSERVED SPRAYING OUT OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT UPON CRANKING OF THE ENGINE. THE DEALERSHIP WAS CONTACTED AGAIN IN WHICH THEY TOWED THE CAR TO THEIR SHOP TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. THEY NOTED THE FUEL LINE ATTACHED TO FUEL RAIL WAS IMPROPERLY INSTALLED (AT FACTORY AS DESCRIBED BY DEALERSHIP GARAGE) WHICH CAUSED THE FUEL TO SPRAY THROUGHOUT THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT.
