IN DRY, GOOD ROAD CONDITIONS, WHEN BRAKING, THE ABS GOES INTO INAPPROPRIATE OPERATION AND REDUCES BRAKING ABILITY BY 40% TO 70%. I TESTED THE VEHICLE UNDER SAFE CONDITIONS AND THE PROBLEM IS CONSISTENT. I RE-SEATED THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS ON THE ABS MODULATOR / MOTOR PACK AND THE PROBLEM TEMPORARILY GOES AWAY. *AK

DISCOVERED GAS TANK LEAK WHILE CAR PARKED IN ALBANY, NY. PROCEEDED TO DE PAULA CHEVROLET, 785 CENTRAL AVENUE, ALBANY, NY 12206, TEL: 518-489-0122. THE FUEL TANK IS PROTECTED BY A METAL "SHROUD". THE GAS WAS LEAKING ONTO THE EXHAUST PIPE. BOTH SHROUD AND FUEL TANK WERE IN PERFECT CONDITION. THE HOLE IN THE GAS TANK WAS DIRECTLY UNDER THE SHROUD, NEAR THE CENTER OF THE TANK - THUS NO OUTSIDE OBJECT COULD HAVE POSSIBLY CAUSED THE DAMAGE. THE DEALER LISTED THE PROBLEM AS RUST - AS THAT WAS THE ONLY EXPLANATION THEY COULD OFFER. AN EXAMINATION OF THE TANK SHOWED NO RUST. THIS CAR HAS NOT SEEN A WINTER AS IT IS GARAGED DUING THE WINTER MONTHS. THE DEALER. DE PAULA SHOULD STILL HAVE THE TANK, AS I REQUESTED IT BE HELD. GM CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS POLITE, HOWEVER THEIR INTEREST WAS IN THE FACT THAT THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THE EXPENSE IS MINE. I DO CARE ABOUT THE $900 IT COST TO FIX BUT I STRESSED TO THEM HOW UPSET I WAS WITH THE FACT THAT THIS CAR WAS CLOSE TO EXPLODING. ADDITIONALLY FUEL TANKS DO NOT WEAR OUT IN 6 YEARS. I USED TO BE IN THE AUTOMOTIVE BUSINESS.*AK

I HAVE HAD NO LUCK GETTING ANY ASSISTANCE FROM THE DEALERSHIP CLASSIC CHEVROLET IN ANAHEIM HILLS, CA ADDITONALLY MORE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS ARISE AND HAVE NOT YET BEEN DIAGNOSED OR REPARED COMPLETELY TO DATE. *AK
