1993 Cadillac Seville Complaints

FUEL LINE IS LEAKING AND CAN CAUSE A FIRE. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS PART IN 1993. THERE SAYING THERE IS NO OPEN RECALL ON THE FUEL LINES. THE DESCRIPTION OF THE RECALL IN 1993 IS EXACTLY WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MY FUEL LINES. ITS SPRAYING FUEL OUT OF ONE OF THE LINES BY THE ENGINE.

THE FUEL LINE IS LEAKING. IT COULD START A FIRE AND I HAVE CHILDREN. I FOUND A RECALL ON THIS ALREADY ON ANOTHER SITE BUT DIDN'T KNOW IF IT WOULD STILL BE VALID TO GET IT REPLACED. I JUST BOUGHT THE VEHICLE FROM AN INDIVIDUAL AND THEN 2 MONTHS AFTER THIS HAPPENED. CONSEQUENCE: (FUEL LEAKS IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT CAN RESULT IN UNDERHOOD FIRES IF EXPOSED TO A SOURCE OF IGNITION) SUMMARY: (THE FUEL FEED AND RETURN LINES TO THE ENGINE FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM WERE NOT FULLY ASSEMBLED AND LOCKED. THE LINES CAN WORK LOOSE) REMEDY: (DEALER WILL INSPECT VEHICLE AND, IF NECESSARY ADJUST OR REPLACE THE FUEL FEED AND RETURN LINES TO THE ENGINE FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM) I HAVE A 1993 CADILLAC SEVILLE STS V8 4.6L THAT'S WHAT THE RECALL SAID ABOUT THE RECALL ON THIS CAR. I HAVE TRIED TO BUY NEW PART BUT IT IS DISCONTINUED I AM ASSUMING BECAUSE THERE'S A RECALL. *TR
