    what is wrong with these cars and the people of GM?!!
    My GF was pumping gas, she heard no click, the pump never shut off and she looks down GAS ALL OVER THE FLOOR. she said it was more bias on the driver side when looking under the car there was a leak coming from a line close to the filler into a metal line with a clamp on it.
    I have been noticing a fuel smell and burning through gas. has anybody else had this issue? could this explain my stalling issues?

    I am really regreting this car. It has been nothing but trouble!!!

    In my 3100 gp my fuel line started to leak by the filter. It was an easy fix.

    Yes that would cause you to stall if you're not getting enough fuel.

    Sounds like a rotted filler neck, just replace it it's not a hard job.

    Exactly. Cars have problems and need repairs. GM doesn't have the lock on that.

    Situations like this confuse me, you tell us that it leaked once, but what probly happened was your GF overfilled your gas tank as she sucks at life.
    Don't blame Gm because you don't know what happened. And even if a part failed such as a tank/fillerneck, your car is old, deal with it.

    Also in a different post you said u replaced your fuel pump,

    Did you seal the tank properly?

    hey **** you asshole. you have no right to speak about my gf that way.
    i understand cars get old and have to replace parts. but seems like these cars need more repair than the next.

    I'm with these guys, suck it up man.

    I just bought my 04 comp G and already I've done a tune up, thermostat, replaced BBV due to vac leak and today I'm changing the front brakes. I've only had the car since July.
