Poor-Quality Petrol Blamed for Widespread Car Breakdowns in Syria

Drivers in Syria are reporting a wave of mechanical failures they blame on poor-quality petrol, raising frustration over fuel supplies and the financial burden of vehicle repairs.

Complaints about substandard petrol circulating on the market have spread widely among motorists, with affected car owners reporting breakdowns and financial losses.

The reports have renewed concerns over the quality of fuel deliveries. For drivers facing repair bills, the complaints highlight the cost of fuel problems beyond the price paid at the pump.
