AT APPROXIMATELY 35,000 MILES ON 2001 GMC YUKON XL, THE CAR BEGAN STALLING WHEN PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE OR WHEN IDLING AT RED LIGHTS, ETC. TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH COMPLAINT. WE WERE TOLD IT NEEDED THE FUEL INJECTION SERVICE. WE HAD THIS DONE AT A LOCAL MECHANIC AND THE NEXT TIME WE REFUELED THE VEHICLE, WE SMELLED GAS AND NOTICED THE CAR WAS LEAKING FUEL. NOW ANY TIME WE COMPLETELY FILL THE VEHICLE WITH GAS, IT LEAKS AND YOU CAN SMELL GAS FOR A FEW DAYS. WHEN WE TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH THIS COMPLAINT, THE CAR WAS THEN OUT OF WARRANTY, AND THE DEALERSHIP WANTED $250 JUST TO LOOK AT THE GAS TANK TO SEE WHAT WAS WRONG. WE DENIED THAT SERVICE. WE WERE MADE AWARE OF A POSSIBLE PROBLEM THROUGH AN ARTICLE IN THE ATLANTA JOURNAL CONSTITUTION ON 9/14/04.*AK
