GM HAD A INJECTOR PROBLEM (RECALL ) IN 2006. THEY REPLACED MINE ON SEPT,27 2006. ON MAY 21 20013 I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM IN WHICH GM CONVEYS THEY CAN'T FIX IT AGAIN. THE MILEAGE ON MAY, 21 WAS 84362, JUST ABOUT HOW LONG THE OTHERS LASTED. I WAS TOLD FROM MY LOCAL GM DEALER THAT THEY ARE SEVERAL OTHER OWNERS WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM (THOUSANDS). I JUST WAITED TO PASS MY GRIEF ALONG TO LET SOMEONE ELSE KNOW HOW YOU ARE TREATED BY ONE OF THE COMPANIES THAT WE BAILED OUT WITH OUR MONIES. *TR

TL* - THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL GAVE NO RESISTANCE WHEN HE APPLIED THE BRAKES, BUT THE VEHICLE DID STOP. THIS HAPPENED AT ALL SPEEDS. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSIS. THE DEALER STATED THAT GM TOLD THEM THAT THIS WAS NORMAL FOR THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THIS STARTED HAPPENING THE WEEK OF 12/18/06. THERE HAVE BEEN NO REPAIRS PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE. *AK UPDATED 1/29/2007 - THE CONSUMER IS CONCERNED BECAUSE THE VEHICLE HAS NOT OPERATED THIS WAY FOR THE FIRST TWO YEARS OF OWNERSHIP. *NM
