Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I had a check engine light appear last week and brought the 2003 ssr for service wednesday 10-24-12. Service team identified the issue as a crack in the gas tank. The crack was at the fill area where the plastic neck connection goes into the plastic tank. You can imagine how surprising this would be as a consumer and chevy loyalist! My wife and I are driving around in a vehicle with gas potentially leaking onto the exhaust system. Thank goodness for the check engine light! I've owned numerous chevys and a couple of german vehicles over the years, never with any failure of the fuel system. …”
NHTSA complaint #10483748, filed 2012-11, 31,000 miles“My husband pulled into traffic today and his 2003 Chevrolet silverado stalled. No one was hurt, traffic stopped. He learned a cable running to the gas line snapped in two for no apparent reason. It is being fixed now. The only reason I'm filing this is to see if it a problem for others. Our truck is already being repurchased later this month for a four wheel drive problem and will no longer be of our concern at the end of this month. I just hope this is an isolated incident, but am concerned that GM has a definite quality issue when manufacturing their vehicles.”
