Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Regulator failure on vehicle has caused the intake gaskets to blow out.*mr the vehicle has been taken to the dealer twice to have the plenum replaced due to fuel pressure regulator malfunction. the consumer was told that both times the regulator failed causing a backfire, blowing the intake gaskets. this in turns caused the exhaust tube in the plenum to get too hot therefore burning a hole in the plenum. the consumer finally eceived a recall not related to the problem and submitted paperwork for reimbursement. the manufacturer only reimbursed the consumer a portion of what was actually paid in repairs. *nm
