| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Anyone had their chevy truck fuel pump replaced? apparently this is a default on lots of 2000 and later gm suv's & trucks, a quick survey of people i know and their contacts has revealed that this is a common occurrence (4 confirmed). my 2003 truck (45k miles) is sitting in a dealership waiting for me to authorize +$1,000 in repairs (@10% of the value of the truck). there is a recall for tahoe's & suburbans etc. regarding this issue. i want to escalate this issue and make it a recall item. a fuel pump that fails to deliver enough fuel to an engine will lean it out and eventually kill the motor, making this a larger financial and hazardous issue. please let the nhtsa know if this has happened to you. if it happened to an associate of yours, please have them email the ntsb directly. on craigslist. *jb |
