| 2006 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | I WENT TO MOVE THE CAR IN MY DRIVEWAY, WHEN I NOTICED ON ODOR OF GASOLINE. I DIDN'T OBSERVE ANY GASOLINE, AND STARTED THE CAR. IT TOOK LONGER THAN USUAL TO START, AS IF IT TOOK A WHILE FOR GASOLINE TO GET TO THE ENGINE. AFTER MOVING IT, I NOTICED GASOLINE DRIPPING FROM UNDER THE CAR, JUST IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR TIRE. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO A CHEVROLET DEALER. THE DEALER INSPECTED THE CAR AND TOLD ME THAT THE FUEL LINES WERE CORRODED, LEAKING, AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I WAS THEN TOLD THE NEW FUEL LINES WERE ON BACK ORDER, AND IT MAY BE SEVERAL DAYS BEFORE THEY COULD GET THEM. THE CAR SAT AT THE DEALERSHIP, WAITING FOR THE PARTS. IT TOOK FOUR WEEKS. WHY WOULD THE FUEL LINES ON A 2006 AUTOMOBILE BE CORRODED? IS IT THE ALCOHOL IN GASOLINE? WHY WERE FUEL LINES ON BACK ORDER, AND TAKE FOUR WEEKS TO GET? IS GENERAL MOTORS HAVING TROUBLE KEEPING UP WITH DEMAND BECAUSE SO MANY ARE CORRODING? *TR |
