Two problems related to fuel hoses lines/piping and fittings have been reported for the 1999 Buick Park Avenue. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I own a 1999 Buick pk Ave. On Feb 27, 2011 I had to move vehicle to plow snow. Low battery, attach booster pack and tried to start again. There was a loud backfire. Apparently the plenum had burst knocking off fuel line and I found my vehicle to be on fire. After putting out fire I contacted my ins CO, who advised me that this damage was an exact description of a gm recall-TSB#03054b- and I should contact them. Gm advised me that the recall was done previously. I would have thought that this problem would not have happened if the supposed repair was actually done and the replacement parts were not also faulty. I feel gm should be responsible. I have saved all parts and am requesting an investigation into this matter. Another vehicle in my same area also has the same condition and fire - his car was burnt up. Something is definitely wrong and I am hoping there will be another investigation. Either in the repair parts if used or the dealerships repair habits confirming that no fraud was committed by said dealership.
The vehicle had a crack in the fuel line which caused the vehicle to catch on fire. The dealer was notified. It was confirmed that that fire started as a result of cracked fuel line. Gm has been notified.
