The service department said there were some damaged vent hoses in the rear of the engine $400 estimate. It didn't seem right anybody know the codes or any similar problem with vent hoses.
I had AutoZone run a scan and they came up with two codes
Fuel air metering and fuel stepper motor.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

You might have the same problem as mine; I'll be working on it next weekend. There are two hoses towards the rear of the engine (just take off the engine cover and you'll see them). Mine got very soft and gooey and one of them is widely split open. Try to feel them by hand and you'll figure out right away if that's the problem. It seems to be a little tricky to replace them, but I'll do it myself.
If your problem is the air mass filter going bad, that's a very easy DYI but the part is expensive (about $300).
