Poor Gasoline Tank Metal & Design / Innova G A/T
| | Model | Innova G A/T | | | What things have gone wrong with the car? | I am quite disappointed to discover that my gas tank was leaking after I discover gas leak in my garage. I recalled that I happen to pass by a not so big stone on my way back to Manila from Bicol somewhere in Lucena 5 days ago. | | | General comments? | I know that it will not happen if not with the stone I pass by BUT what I am disappointed when I inspected it is looks like that the metal is not so thick that any low-medium hit can cause the metal to rip apart (dent will be acceptable)
Also further inspection on the tank shows that the gas tank design area occupies a larger area that is exposed in the underchassis. It would have been much better if its design has a limited area that are exposed under (e.g. like a tall rectangular boxe than a large rectangular tray).
Considering the Phil road conditions, Gas Tank must be robust and thickly made to minimize this risk.. | | | Engine and transmission | average | | | Performance | average | | | Reliability | good | | | Comfort | average | | | Dealer | Makati Bel-Air | | | Distance when acquired | brand new | | | Most recent distance | 40,0000 km+ | | | Previous car | Honda CRV | | | First year of ownership | 1999 | | | Most recent year of ownership | 1997 Innova |
