Default Hail the General

I am very pleased with my experience with general motors. Some of you may remember my lemon post and how i was without my zr1 for almost 2 months. My car appears to be properly repaired and i am enjoying the hell out of it.
Thanks all for your help and patience.

yes.
fuel sending unit replaced twice.
Eventually an engineer from chevy came to the dealership and found a crease in the fuel line between the two fuel tanks. I was very frustrated at the time.

Actually the factory wants very much to solve hard to fix problems, they know there will be duplicates

You can be sure quality control issued a bulletin to engineering who sent a 'attention' notice" to the line boss

Good to hear everything worked out for you and that you are now enjoying the ZR1. I remember seeing the pictures of your car in the shop at the dealership. What a nightmare! Glad it's over.
