Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2003 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER EXT. ON 03/07/2013 IT STARTED TO LEAK FUEL WHILE PARKED IN THE GARAGE, I TOOK IT TO BEARDMORE CHEVROLET IN BELLEVUE,NEBRASKA TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT. SERVICE WRITER TOLD ME THERE HAVE BEEN PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL TANK FILLER NECK CRACKING AND LEAKING ALONG WITH THE FUEL PUMP LEAKING AND POOLING FUEL ON TOP OF THE TANK, THEY INFORMED ME THAT GM HAD A SERVICE LETTER OUT THAT COVERED FULL REPLACEMENT OF TANK,PUMP AND LINES AT NO CHARGE FOR 10YEARS OR 150,000 MILES, I HAVE 81260 MILES AND AN IN SERVICE DATE OF 03/26/03 SO I WAS 10 DAYS OUT OF WARRANTY ON THE REPAIR. DEALER CALLED GM FOR ME AND GOT APPROVAL TO REPAIR THE TRAILBLAZER WITH ME PAYING 500.00 OF THE 2200.00 REPAIR. I TOOK THE DEAL AS THEY COULD HAVE JUST DENIED THE WHOLE CLAIM. SO PEOPLE IF YOU SMELL FUEL OF HAVE A WET FUEL TANK GET IT TO THE DEALER ASAP. GM HELPING WITH THE BILL IS BETTER THAN NOTHING. I WAS ALSO TOLD THE NEW PARTS WERE ALL UPDATED AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE THE PROBLEM AGAIN. *TR
