DT: THE CONTACT OWNS A 1994 CHEVROLET S-10 PICK-UP TRUCK. THE SCREWS HOLDING THE THROTTLE PEDAL IN PLACE WERE TOO LONG. THEY PROTRUDED THROUGH THE FIREWALL INTO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT; THE SCREW PROTRUDED INTO THE LOOM THAT HAS THE WIRING IN IT AND SUPPLIED THE POWER TO THE IGNITION COIL. THIS CAUSED THE FUSE TO BLOW OUT, WHICH IN TURN, CAUSED THE ENGINE TO DIE. THIS STARTED ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM. THE CONTACT PAID THEM FOR THE DIAGNOSIS WHICH WAS $113.00.*AK

I CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER SERVICE AND TALKED TO [XXX] NELSON A CUSTOMER SERVICE SUPERVISOR WHO TOLD ME THAT GM HAS NO KNOWLEDGE OF THESE CAMPAIGNS.
