i get what you are saying, but at the same time, there WAS a danger...believe it or not. yea, NBC got in trouble, but even GM in their own reports stated that there WAS a danger, and a pretty significant one. but you're right, a minor fender bender won't do it.

and honestly, even according to GM's records of crash tests, the C-series isn't so much at risk, the K-series is the highest risk of the fuel leakage because of it's higher ride height and lack of frame flex...
