The car started normally. This vehicle is gas dependent and has a dangerous gas leak. This vehicle is available for inspection upon request. It has a safety inspection sticker on it as of May 2022. This safety is a risk throughout our community after being driven and gas spilled in large amounts. The vehicle stopped and had to be manually reconfigured to return to the residence. This is temporary fix. I do not know if this is reproduced problem. We were directed to contact the dealership who fixed or repaired the problems related to Campaign 205. Criswell Maserati of Germantown, Maryland was contacted on 4 August and the Service Departed provided information concerning the repairs to be corrected and no additional repairs related to Campaign 205. This vehicle has been safety inspected at the time of purchased in December 2021. There were not symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. We drove the vehicle from King George, Va to Woodbridge Va without any indicators.
