gm recall on fuel systems

g5, ion, cobalt, g6 and equinox owners go to your local gm dealer for this recall. the recall is for the plastic covers on fuel pumps cracking and causing fires. tell tell signs are smelling fuel while driving or rite after turning the car off.

I just did a search for it. The information i found on it said that it is only for vehicles in certain states.

"General Motors (GM) is recalling certain model year 2007 Chevrolet Equinox and Pontiac Torrent vehicles originally sold or
currently registered in Arizona, California, Nevada, and Texas; model year 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt, Pontiac G5, and Saturn ION
vehicles originally sold, or currently registered in, Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, or Texas; model year 2008 Chevrolet Cobalt
and Pontiac G5 vehicles originally sold, or currently registered in, Arizona; and modely year 2009 Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5
vehicles originally sold, or currently registered in, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma, or Texas. Some of these
vehicles have a condition in which the plastic supply or return port on the fuel pump module may crack, which could cause a fuel
leak."

Ha uve got to be kidding me. Mine leaked bad like 6 months ago. I showed them like 6 different internet articles saying that it was a recall in different states so i argued that it made no ******* sense. So they met me in the middle. I paid for the part and they did the labor. But that link states it was specifically for 2007 models. I think. All i saw was that it didnt mention 06 which is wat my car is. That makes sense right?... Stupid ******* gm

I called then also and they were like,"your not in the system for it yet, but tour car is the right make and model for the recall. You have to wait for the letter in the mail."
It's stupid.
