ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
MY CAR WILL SHUT OFF WHEN I AM EITHER TURNING OR SLOWING DOWN WITHOUT ANY WARNING, I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL, TURN THE KEY OFF THEN ON AGAIN AND IT STARTS LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. THE ENGINE DOESN'T SHOW ANY WARNING LIGHTS IT JUST SHUTS OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED NOW ABOUT 6 TIMES. I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER, BUT IF I AM GIVEN AN IDEA OF WHAT TO LOOK FOR I CAN TAKE IT TO MY MECHANIC WHO IS VERY QUALIFIED AND DID REPLACE A SENSOR THAT WENT BAD. PLEASE HELP

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
FUEL PUMP MODULE CORROSION CAUSING LEAKING FUEL AND FUEL VAPORS FROM THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK. THIS IS DUE TO A DESIGN DEFECT AS THE FUEL PUMP MODULE SITS LOWER THAN THE HIGHEST POINT OF THE FUEL TANK AND MOISTURE AND DEBRIS ACCUMULATE ON TOP OF THE FUEL PUMP MODULE. THE TOP OF THE MODULE IS NOT MANUFACTURED WITH APPROPRIATE RUST-PROOFING MEASURES AND THE MATERIALS USED LEAVE IT PRONE TO RUSTING AND FAILURE, COMPROMISING THE SEAL AND ALLOWING FUEL TO ESCAPE FROM THE TANK. THIS POSES A FIRE HAZARD, ESPECIALLY IF FUEL IS ABLE TO REACH HEATED EXHAUST PIPES, ETC. I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO A A GMC DEALERSHIP AND WAS DENIED REPAIR OF THE VEHICLE OR REIMBURSEMENT FOR REPAIR. THERE WAS A SPECIAL COVERAGE FOR THIS VEHICLE THAT HAS SINCE EXPIRED, PROVING THAT GM IS / WAS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. GIVEN THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE, THIS SHOULD BE ESCALATED TO RECALL STATUS DUE TO THE INHERENT SAFETY ISSUE AND FIRE RISK.
