gas filler hose neck should be made of rubber maybe then it would NOT crack so easily, seems as though once the vehicle hit 60,000 miles the check engine light came on to stay. First instrument panel cluster needed repaired, then the thermostat/lifetime antifreeze needed replaced, no as vehicle starts up for a moment and then dies out (seems as though its starving for fuel), now its running rough like it needs a tune up (plugs/wires, etc.) may actually be caused by a catalytic converter (complaint reported by another car owner) collapsing causing back pressure. A few high dollar repairs on a vehicle that appreciated a great deal since purchased NEW in 2004. (purchase price $26,000 NEW 2004 & KB value $3500 used 2012 (avg values))
