“Fuel leaking from engine. With 9595 miles on the engine the truck leaks fuel from the engine like crazy. Vehicle is 6 months old. Can't get chevy to pickup the rig because they say I need to call the fire department - the fire department tells me there is nothing they can do - been battling with chevy all day on this. Its a safety hazard cabin smells like the inside of a gas tank - I don't feel save driving it anywhere.”

NHTSA complaint #10821757, filed 2016-01, 9,595 miles

“Driving towing a travel trailer. Felt a vibration. Pulled over and nothing visible. Resumed but engine had no power. 30 MPH max speed. Called onstar and they could find no codes. Tried to continue but no engine power beyond 30 MPH.. Called onstar again and this time they identified 2 codes. Dropped trailer at a church parking lot. Truck now in reduced power mode and leaking liquid. Arrived at a dealer who identified problem as return fuel line had become disconnected. They reconnected and truck ran normally. Approximately 20 gallons of diesel fuel had leaked during this 8 mile ordeal.”
