NHTSA Complaint #708235 — 1995 CHEVROLET ASTRO

FUEL INJECTOR PLUGS UP AND FAILS. IT RUNS VERY ROUGH. NOTHING CAN PREVENT PROBLEM PER DEALER SERVICE TECHS. I WAS TOLD IT WAS DUE TO POOR DESIGN. IT HAS OCCURRED TWICE NOW. THE FIRST COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE SECOND WAS NOT AND CHEV CORP REFUSED TO COVER SECOND REPLACEMENT. LOOP HOLE IN WARRANTY. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS ABOUT EVERY 40,000 TO 45,000 MILES. I WAS TOLD THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT IS STARTING TO SEE ALOT OF THIS LATELY. WINDSHIELD WIPERS- THEY WERE WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. THE FIRST TIME THEY WENT OUT IT WAS ON THE FREEWAY IN A HEAVY STORM. THE DEALER COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. IT DID NOT FAIL IN THEIR SHOP. IT TOOK TWO SHOPS BEFORE THEY FOUND THE PROBLEM. IT WAS SOME TYPR OF LOOSE ELECTRICAL WIRING. NOT COVERED BY DEALER DUE TO ME BEING OVER MILEAGE. *AK
