problem #1

Feb 022007

Impala 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 95,000 miles
The contact owns a 2001 Chevrolet Impala. While the vehicle was parked in a paint shop, it spontaneously exploded. Although the contact was experiencing the same failure as noted in NHTSA campaign id number 96V116000 (fuel system, gasoline:fuel injection system), the dealer stated that the VIN was not included in the recall. The dealer stated that he would have to replace the cover intake manifold and the fuel injection system. The manufacturer was unable to assist. The failure and current mileages were 95,000.
