The transmission cooling lines corroded and caused a transmission fluid leak. The engine rpms increased and the vehicle lost power while going down interstate 86. When the fluid leaked out of the transmission cooling lines, it sprayed all over the exhaust pipes, which caused a severe fire hazard. Due to the loss of transmission fluid, it cased significant damage to the transmission internals.

(1) fuel sensor went bad on my '04 chevy trailblazer ext ls 4wd 4.2 liter v6 engine which has (26,000 miles on it - excellent condition), thereby (2) causing the catalytic converter to become congested causing loss of power for use and towing on the vehicle. (3) told by the dealer where vehicle purchased that this item is not available for consumer use by gm parts and service. Told I would have to wait up to 3 months for item to be available for public release. This is not acceptable on a leased vehicle. Paying to not be able to use vehicle to full potential. Major loss. I am very dissatisfied with gm service. However, I was offered a rental vehicle to drive for this time period that is not equivalent to my own vehicle. This was finally offered after arguing with gm representative.
