Latest recall

Whose going to be taking their coupe to the stealership to have the work done.

Myself, I'll take my chance catching on fire rather than letting the incompetents disassemble/resassemble a 1/4 of my car

Not sure if it only affects the '04, but I heard that if you have an '04 but it was manufactured in '05, then you should fine. Not sure if that's true, but that's what I've heard a few times.

But as for me, I'm going to take a chance on my car catching on fire than to let the dealership add to the annoying problems that I currently do have already.

step by step instructions and pics of what they have to do. I wouldn't trust them with that much work, especially if you have mods back there.

You can have an '05 built in '04, but NOT an '04 built in '05.

I think samco only has engine dress up hoses, not fuel filter hoses in the rear. And everything is free at the dealership which should be warrantied work, as opposed to $200 + labor for Samco hoses.
