Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“On april 13 2014 my truck was leaking fuel too bad to continue driving. I have been smelling gas for about a year and could never find where the leak was coming from. Then on april 13th while I was driving home I smelled gas and had to pull over, frightened that the truck might catch fire and explode. It seems there is a leak around the fuel tank. I notified GM and they said that they would only pay for a portion of the repair. …”
NHTSA complaint #10579645, filed 2014-04, 98,000 miles“Vehicle has intermittent problems with the fuel delivery system, causing stalling, very low rough idle, unable to accelerate. This happens in traffic, at stop lights etc. The make and model of my truck is included in a safety recall bulletin #14515b january 2015, however my particular truck is not on the recall list. I have contacted GM and they are unwilling to replace the fuel pump flow control module that is causing this safety hazard. My belief is that GM recalled certain vehicles and excluded some that should be in the safety recall scope.”
NHTSA complaint #11321325, filed 2020-04, 145,000 miles“Fuel gauge showing that I had fuel ,but the truck ran out of gas twice going down the road 55mph. I did get the truck pulled over to a gravel road and then called someone to bring more gas.”
