Consumer Description

OVER THE PAST YEAR I HAVE BEEN CONTACTING BUICK AND DELPHI ABOUT THE RECALL ON THE FUEL SYSTEM IN MY 2005 BUICK RENDEZVOUS. I RECENTLY SLIGHTLY PASSED OUT AND CRASHED IN THE CAR DUE TO BEING OVERCOME BY THE INTENSIVE RAW GAS FUMES. I RECENTLY CONTACTED BOTH AGAIN AND I WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON CERTAIN VEHICLES BUT MY VEHICLES VIN # IS NOT ONE IDENTIFIED IN THE RECALL. I CHECKED TO SEE IF MY PREVIOUS COMPLAINT WAS ON FILE AND IT WAS NO WHERE TO BE FOUND. I AM MAKING THIS COMPLAINT SO BEFORE HAND SO THAT ANYONE ELSE WITH THIS ISSUE CAN TAKE IT SERIOUS AND TAKE ACTION RIGHT AWAY BEFORE THEY START DISPLAYING HEALTH RELATED ISSUES LIKE ME AND MY FAMILY.
