Consumer Description

MY 2007 SUPERCHARGED COBALT HAS BEEN LEAKING GAS LIKE A PIG. IT IS COMING FROM THE EXPOSED PLASTIC RETAINER CLIP THAT HAS RUSTED THROUGH MY GAS LINE AND SLOWLY RUSTING THROUGH MY BRAKE LINE NOW AS WELL. THIS IS A HUGE DESIGN FLAW AS THERE IS DEFINATELY ROAD SALT THAT GOT BETWEEN THE PLASTIC CLIP AND GAS LINE EATING AWAY AT THE METALS AND RUSTING. THE GAS LINE IS RIGHT ABOVE MY HOT EXHAUST AND THE LINE AND REPAIR IS STUPID EXPENSIVE AND CONSIDERING ALL THE OTHER 3 FUEL RECALLS ON THIS CAR I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED AS MY CAR BARELY HAS 100,XXX MILES AND COULD POTENTIALLY CATCH FIRE UNTIL I HAVE THE $900 I WAS QUOTED TO FIX THIS.
