Consumer Description

BASED ON A TIP FROM THE LS1GTO.COM MESSAGE BOARD, I CHECKED MY RECENTLY PURCHASED 'CERTIFIED" 2004 PONTIAC GTO FOR A FUEL LINE RUBBING THE FUEL RAIL PLASTIC COVER - AND EVENTUALLY WEARING THROUGH THE FUEL LINE, AND CAUSING A FIRE IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. MY VEHICLE DOES INDEED EXHIBIT THE SYMPTOM - AND IT WAS JUST CHECKED AND "CERTIFIED" AT THE DEALER WHEN I PURCHASED IT 45 DAYS AGO. I HAVE REMOVED THE FUEL RAIL COVERS PERMANENTLY AND WILL HAVE TO PURCHASE A NEW FUEL LINE MYSELF AS IT SEEMS GM OR THE NHTSA ARE UNWILLING TO ADMIT AND FIX THE PROBLEM. A NUMBER OF FIRES HAVE ALREADY BEEN REPORTED BY OTHERS..... *TR
