Minor Miracle on a over 13 year old car.

[SideShow Bob]

I must have someone up there looking out for me !
just got a call back ( an hour and a half ago) from the Stealership, my 13+ year old beater commuter car is completely covered by a special service tech bulletin, the fuel tank, fuel pump and filler hose from the tank to the steel filler tube are going to be replaced at no charge to me.
This might not sound amazing to most of you all, but for me, someone who is cursed by Murphy and is always just a few numbers off to qualify for most recalls, service bulletins and the like and have to pay for repairs that can?t do on my own. This is a miracle.

WooooooHoooooo, hood rant over.... [Tooth][Tooth]

Nice, SSB.

Are they giving you a chainsaw with that, too?

Too soon? ;)

That would be like winning the lottery, but alas no, no chainsaw.........

Sounds like you may be more lucky than you know. To replace all that and the MFR pay, must have had some issues, maybe like the pinto picture someone posted not too long ago in the funny pictures thread?

Goods news!

That is indeed similar to a winning a scratch ticket.



BTW, right after the chainsaw incident, I saw the same person at a other forum asking people to borrow a generator. I think more than 1 person IM the member who was about to lend a generator.

I?m over the chainsaw, but it is still funny when someone brings it up out of the blue.....

Yes that would be like a low four digit scratch off considering what the parts & labor would have run.

Great news! Good for you. Nice to hear of something good happening for a change.

WHat flavor of vehicle?

[SideShow Bob]

WHat flavor of vehicle?

2007 Chevrolet Cobalt. With a whopping 40,475 miles on the odometer.

If you know anyone with a Cobalt, and if they have a strong odor of gasoline after driving for a little bit, or if they are getting g a puddle of gasoline under the back end, let me know and I will give you the special service bulletin number to see if their local stealership will fix their problem under the bulletin.

You're not lucky.

The manufacturer is obligated to fulfill recalls.

Recall NHSTA#09V419000, GM #090226

These are VIN specific so not everyone that still has one is eligible.

Kill Joy !
Can?t you let anyone at least have the illusion of getting one over on the ?Man? ?
And if you Read and Comprehended my original post, I specifically said that I am most of the time the guy that misses being one of the lucky bastards by a few digits in the VIN. Take my truck for instance, it missed out on a heater blower recall by not being in the VIN range, and I had to foot the bill myself.
So, if you are going to be a ?Negative Nancy?, find someone else?s thread to do it in......... [Tooth]
