Description of the problem | After having my 97 chevrolet cavalier fixed as per the recall i got it back and smelled gas when driving it home,took it back to the dealership service dept. Who did the work and they looked at it and said one of the fuel injectors was leaking,and that it wasn't due to the recent repair work they did,the head mechanic shawn said it was the main problem with the cavaliers,if it is common to this type of car should they have tried to fix this problem? *nlm |
