Example complaints

“Central multiport fuel injector assembly failed, causing fuel to enter the oil pan and damage the motor. Fuel was spraying under the phlenem and could have caused a fire. Same unit has failed just over 15 months later, again spraying gas under the phlenem, thankfully again no fire,just spraying of gas.”

NHTSA complaint #10023602, filed 2003-06, 131,300 miles

“I read in the news that NHTSA was investigating GM s series pickups for the spare tire carrier failing. This unit failed while backing out of a drive way. The only damage is to the spare tire carrier itself. If everyone with a failure will notify you, it will give more weight to your case. If this had failed on the expressway, it could have had disasterous results.”
