| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I have a 2003 gmc yukon. it now has 20,000 miles. gm has had to replace the fuel pump twice so far and will have to every time i run low on gasoline. it seems that the pump is located in the gas tank and the pump depends on the tank having enough liquid to keep the electric pump cool. otherwise it overheats and burns up. i can't believe such dumb engineering. i'm sure that i am not the only consumer who has had this trouble. the service people make no secret that you must keep at least a quarter tank at all times to keep the pump from burning up. *ak |
