Consumer Description

I HAD A STRONG FUEL SMELL IN MY GARAGE AND A SMALL PUDDLE OF FUEL ON MY GARAGE FLOOR. I HAD GOTTEN A RECALL NOTICE FROM GM SOME TIME AGO, TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER AT THE TIME AND THEY SAID THEY COULD DO NOTHING UNLESS THERE WAS A LEAK. NOW, I HAVE THE LEAK, BUT GM REFUSES TO FIX THE PROBLEM BECAUSE SOME TIME PERIOD HAS EXPIRED. THIS LEAK HAS BEEN REPAIRED BY ANOTHER SHOP, BUT I AM OUT OVER $2,000 FOR A PROBLEM GM KNEW COULD CAUSE THE CAR TO BURN UP. I SEEK FOR GM TO REIMBURSE ME FOR THIS REPAIR OF A CRITICAL SAFETY ISSUE.
