NHTSA complaint: 1998 CHEVROLET BLAZER — FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM
THE FUEL INJECTORS LEAKED ONTO THE MAIN WIRING HARNESS INSIDE THE ENGINE. ALL OF THE WIRES MELTED. THREE DIFFERENT MECHANICS CONFIRMED THAT THIS SHOULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED AND COULD HAVE CAUSED A FIRE. I WAS REFERED TO GENERAL MOTORS. ESTIMATED REPAIRS FOR $1600.00 INCLUDE REPLACEMENT OF THE WIRING HARNESS, FUEL INJECTORS, FUEL REGULATOR KIT, FUEL BODY KIT AND UPPER INTAKE GASKET. GM HAS AGREED TO PAY 50% OF THE BILL. SINCE THE VEHICLE HAS ONLY 42,000 MILES, HAS BEEN MAINTAINED PROPERLY WITH OIL CHANGES AND TUNE UPS, I FEEL THAT GM IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE TOTAL AMOUNT.*AK
