Fuel Injector Problems of Buick Lesabre

My 1998 Buick Lesabre backfired, then started on fire, after the top of the motor{intake and fuel injectors etc. } were blown off during the explosion. The whole top of the motor was destroyed. Notified gm, and they said they would not help because of a statute of limitations. They know there is a problem!!!.

We were the second owner for this vehicle. The original owner purchased the vehicle at a different dealership. When we purchased the vehicle it had around 42,000 miles. After purchase, we experienced an extended crank before the vehicle started that worsened, so on November 25, 2003, my husband and I took the vehicle to the dealership where the vehicle was originally purchased and they did the following: they noted that the fuel pressure regulator and the upper intake manifold was leaking. They replaced the fuel pressure regulator and intake manifold. Further they flushed and filled the cooling system with new coolant, did an oil and filter change and an envirolution engine flush; removed carbon buildup desludge intake manifold; did a fuel system treatment and cleaned the throttle plate pressurized injector cleaned and applied a fuel tank additive. Total cost of repairs was $1434. 08 (minus $45. 00 for a belt replacement requested by us). This was a costly repair for problems identical to recall no. 0354 for the Buick park avenue (NHTSA pursuit number ea02-030 and NHTSA recall campaign number 03v-473000). Today, January 5, 2004, I called Buick at 1-800-521-7300 and registered a complaint with tony thompson. He said there is no recall for the Buick Lesabre at this time, therefore, no compensation. Can you please help me.

Request for reimbursement for work done on the fuel injectors which was not in the owner's manual for a routine check at 60,000 miles. Mr * ph.
