• Fuel tube retaining clip failure investigation # EA97024

  Most of the reports reviewed in this investigation are fire incidents in which fuel leakage has been alleged as the cause or the area of origin is consistent with the alleged defect.There is no evidence that the subject clip was a factor in any of these fire incidents and nhtsa testing indicates thatbroken or dislodged retention clip does not result in significant movement of the fuel line bundle toward the left secondary air injection check valve.Failure of the clip places the fuel line bundle assembly in the same configuration as the 1993 model year lti vehicles.A safety-related defect trend has not been identified at this time and further use of agency resources does not appear to be warranted.The closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by nhtsa that no safety-related defect exists.The agency reserves the right to take further action if warranted by the circumstances.

• Fuel tub retaining clip failure investigation # PE97036

  Owners have reported failures of the fuel tube retention clip that attaches to the plastic throttle linkage cover.According to gm, the subject retention clip (p/n 12048089) was implemented in production on october 12, 1993, to address a concern with incorrect assembly plant fuel line routing.Mis-routed fuel tubes may fail from contact with a hot air check valve, creating a fire hazard in the engine compartment.Gm maintains that no problems should occur if the clip is properly installed and isnt mishandled during subsequent service operations.Some owners have alleged to odi that the subject clip becomes brittle over time and may also pull free of the throttle linkage cover attachment hole.

Original owner of 95 camaro 350 engine that did regular mobil 1 oil changes and has 97000 miles. Had to replace damaged-worn camshaft and lifters. I have heard that this is a problem that gm is having with other cars also. I had a problem back in the 70's when gm had a recall on soft cam shafts and this looks like the same problem that i just had fixed on this 1995. *tr

Loss electrical and engine power while driving car to work. Car was stranded on side of road. Had car towed to repair center. Technicians replaced computer module and opti-spark distributor . A couple of months later car would not start. Symptoms similar to bad battery. Replaced battery, car would still not start. Had car towed to repair center. At car repair center car started without any servicing being performed. Repairman could not find or explain possible reason for condition. About two weeks later another sudden loss of electrical and engine power while driving home from the grocery store. Managed to coast car to a safe location off the road. After a short period of time, power returned and was able to start car and drive the rest of the way home. *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 1995 chevrolet camaro. While driving 15 mph, the brakes failed and the vehicle crashed into the rear of another vehicle. The bumpers on both vehicles were scratched. The contact stated that when the brakes were applied, the pedal would drop 3 inches and then re-engage after 2 seconds. The abs warning indicator light illuminated after the pedal returned. The vehicle has not been inspected by a dealer. The current and failure mileages were 180,000.

There is a nhtsa recall, #95v046000, regarding the steering. The vehicle has the same problems as indicated in the recall; however, it is not included in the recall due to the vin.

I was heading north on the highway and i changed lanes from the left to the right lane. Once i changed lanes my car jerked viciously back to the left i corrected the problem and went back to the right, but the car ran off the road and lost the rear passenger wheel and tire. The tire was still intact with the hub and axle (lug nuts were still connected all of them were tight.) this shouldn't have happened. I believe i wrecked because my rear axle broke. And further more my air bags must have been defective because they did not deploy on impact. They had deployed when the tow trucks brought the car out of the hole. *nm

Dt*: the contact stated while traveling 30 mph, flames erupted from the engine compartment. The vehicle pulled over and no injuries were sustained. The engine and front of the vehicle were completely engulfed in flames by the time the fire department arrived. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. The service dealer and manufacturer were notified. An inspector from the manufacturer was sent to inspect the cause of the fire. The contact suspected a melted section of the plastic fuel line melted and leaked fuel onto the hot engine causing the fire.

A pair or power wires shorted out by touching the support wires under my drivers side seat causeing the wires to heat up melting and scorching the foam under the seat, causing a small fire. *ak

My daughter pushed in the cigarette lighter that is when she saw a spark and a trail of fire going to top of stereo and over to steering area. She parked car and called the fire dept. The only thing left of my car is back tires and taillights. I have had the anti lock brake light staying on. Wipers work only when and if they feel like it. They don't cover glass on driver side window. Not being able to go up or down if you didn't wait an hour in between. This car has only 70000 miles all factory nothing added on. *ph
