Failure Date: 10/25/2007

I was notified of a safety recall on my 1997 Cadillac el dorado that tubing used in the fuel rail const. May degrade and crack. I was told it would be repaired at no charge. When I went to the dealer to have it done I was told that they possibly would have to replace the fuel pump, and I would have to pay for it. I feel this is completely unfair, I didn't create this problem and feel gm should have to make it safe by replacing it at no charge. Anyway! I thought I would let you know what is going on. Let me know if you can do anything. Thanks greg.
