Consumer Description

I STARTED SMELLING GASOLINE WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE GARAGE AND NOTICED A SMALL AMOUNT OF GASOLINE ON THE GARAGE FLOOR. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO BE DIAGNOSED AT A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT IT WAS A FUEL LEAK. I FOUND OUT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE 2002 BUICK RENDEZVOUS, CALLED BUICK AND I WAS TOLD MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL CAMPAIGN. I HAVE STATED TO THEM THAT REGARDLESS OF WHETHER MY VEHICLE IS IN THE RECALL OR NOT, A GAS TANK SHOULD NOT LEAK ON A 5 YR. OLD VEHICLE (OR ANY VEHICLE FOR THAT MATTER). BUICK WILL NOT TAKE CARE OF IT AT THIS TIME. MILEAGE IS AT 83,000 AT THIS TIME. *TR
