Pontiac Aztek Fuel System, Gasoline Storage Tank Assembly Safety Report | Sept 07, 2003
Reported on Sept 07, 2003
| 2001 PONTIAC AZTEC LEAKING FUEL FROM SEAM OF GAS TANK, FIRST NOTICED ON 9/7/03. BROUGHT TO DAVIS PONTIAC DEALER IN RICHBORO PA (WHERE I BOUGHT THE AUTO ON APRIL 14, 2001) INFORMED ME THAT SINCE I HAVE 48,400 MILES ON THE CAR IT WILL COST ME 675 FOR THE TANK REPLACEMENT, 100 FOR OVERNIGHT SHIPMENT. I FEEL THAT THE TANK SHOULD NEVER LEAK DURING THE LIFE OF THE AUTOMOBILE, AND THAT SINCE SHODDY CONSTRUCTION WAS USED IN MANUFACTURING OF THE CAR, I SHOULD NOT BE LIABLE FOR THE REPAIR. FUEL LEAKING IS A SERIOUS HAZARD, ENVIRONMENTALLY, SOCIALLY, AND CONCERNING SAFETY. *PH | |
