Fuel Hoses Lines/piping And Fittings Problems of GMC Sonoma

I was driving my husbands 2001 GMC Sonoma from ohio back to florida when the driveshaft snapped and punctured a hole in the fuel tank and muffler. This event led to us having to replace the rear driveshaft, fuel tank, and he repaired the muffler. We researched GMC driveshaft failures on line and discovered that there were many complaints about the driveshaft breaking.

1998 GMC Sonoma pick up with 4 cylinder automatic transmission. The fuel line mounting bracket located on the bell housing rubbed a hole in the fuel line allowing gasoline to drip on the hot exhaust pipe. It took three dealers and a couple of months to find the leak. General motors stated this was normal wear and refused to repair or assist in repair with estimated cost of $400-$600. This leak presented an extreme fire/explosion hazard. I have never seen or heard of a gas line rubbing through on any vehicle. There is no way this is anything but a design/manufacturing problem.
