Car leaks gas, no hole in tank. saw report about recall for this but my dealership in arizona has stated my vehicle does not qualify. i am confused if there is a recall for this problem how does my vehicle not qualify. this is a hazard that could effect the life of me and my family. *tr

At approximately 7:47am cst on august 7th 2014, i was making a right hand turn when the engine and all electrical components died. i was able to restart the car and safely drive, with no check engine lights/other dash warnings, approximately half a mile back home. there was no warning on the dash (ie check engine light) before the massive failure occurred; it was instantly dead. this fits the characterization of the ignition switch failure in the affected gm models. i was one turn from merging on the freeway. had this incident occurred a minute later, the potential for severe injury/loss of life was great. i have been waiting on a list since april to get the defected ignition switch repaired. i have called several times for updates, and have been told up to 800 people were ahead of me for repairs. when i reported this incident to gm via the ignition switch recall hotline, they suddenly found the parts needed to repair my car. this is suspect to me. they are also claiming that this incident was not ignition switch related, but the fact remains that this was a near-miss ...

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 chevrolet cobalt. the contact stated that there was a fuel leaking from the vehicle. the contact stated that the vin was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 09v419000 (fuel system, gasoline). the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 80,000. the consumer stated on i april of 2014, he took the vehicle to have two recalls performed; the ignition and power steering, and he signed an estimated ticket stating only those two things would be done and he was quoted of a price of $218. however, when he returned to pay for the repairs, the consumer noticed the invoice had brake work and a fuel system clean out, among other items that were not requested or authorized. when the consumer drove off the lot, there was an odor an gas. a mechanic informed the consumer it was probably a bad fuel module. the mechanic informed the consumer, there was no way the dealer didn't know there was a fuel leak. updated 07/30/14

I noticed a smell of gas when entering and exiting the vehicle. when i drive with the windows down i can still smell gas. any time the vehicle is parked when looking under the car you can see and smell the gas dripping on the ground. upon further inspection found the fuel pump seal to be leaking thus causing the fuel to leak on the ground. as i researched recalls i found out that there was a recall on the fuel pump in 2006 chevy cobalts but it was only for certain states. the gm recall number for this is 090226. every thing that was said in this recall is exactly what is wrong with my vehicle. i do not feel that it is fair for me to have to pay for a mistake that was made. *tr

This complaint is that the fuel pump recall for this car, with nhtsa campaign number: 09v419000, did not show up in the database visible to either my mechanic or a gm dealer. this is a life-threatening part failure, with significant amounts of gasoline leaking from the car, either while it is moving or stopped, and i was never notified of this issue. my car currently has this problem, leaking gasoline at quite a rapid rate. the fuel smell while driving is unbearable. wherever i park a puddle of gasoline forms under the car. if i parked in a closed garage, this would be a terrible safety issue. it is for good reason that this recall was put in place. however, apparently this issue shows up in the gm system as a "special coverage" and not a recall. i found out about this issue online. i was searching because i was preparing to pay $833 for my mechanic to replace the fuel pump assembly. when i phoned the dealer, he said he had to get to "another screen" to see the special coverage items, and he only did that because i ...
