FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP
FUEL GAUGE HAS NEVER WORKED PROPERLY( JUMPS FROM 1/2 TANK TO EMPTY) TODAY I WAS DRIVE ON ! 40 EAST AT THE POSTED SPEED OF 75 MPH WITH 1/2 TANK OF FUEL AND THE VEHICLE JUST SHUT DOWN, I DID GET SAFLEY TO THE SHOULDER, TO FIND I WAS OUT OF FUEL ...I T READ 1/2 TANK PREVIOUSLY I HAD HEARD OF THIS HAPPENING TO OTHER GMC OWNERS IN THIS AREA BUT IT WAS THEIR FUEL PUMPS. THE DEALER SAYS IT IS THE LOCAL REFINERY'S FALT FOR ADDITVIES IN THE FUEL .. AND THIS IS THE ONLY AREA WHERE THE FUEL SYSTEM IS BEING AFFECTED. MY EMPLOYEER HAD 2 FUEL PUMPS PUT IN HER NEW GMC YUKON IN 6 MONTHS, AT HER EXPENSE. I DO NOT WANT TO PAY FOR DEFECTIVE PARTS OR AN VEHICLE THAT IS UNSAFE FOR THE INTERSATE.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:CARBURETOR SYSTEM
THE ACCELERATOR STICKS AND IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO DEPRESS. THE CARBURETOR DESIGN ALLOWS CARBON TO BUILD UP IN THE THROTTLE BODY THROAT. I OFTEN HAVE TO "HIT" THE ACCELERATOR WITH MY FOOT TO DISLODGE THE BUTTERFLY. THIS HAPPENS WORSE AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN SETTING FOR AN HOUR OR SO. IT WILL ALSO HAPPEN AFTER DEPARTURE WHILE SETTING IN TRAFFIC OR AT STOP LIGHTS. I USE MID GRADE FUEL AND THE TRUCK IS WELL MAINTAINED. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS TO CHARGE UP TO $100 TO CLEAN THE CARBON OUT ONLY TO HAVE IT RETURN IN A MATTER OF MONTHS. I HAVE TALKED TO OTHERS THAT HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME CONDITION/PROBLEM. IN MY OPINION THIS CONDITION IS A TRUE SAFETY ISSUE. *JB

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:TAILGATE:LATCH
I WAS STANDING ON THE TAILGATE UNLOADING OIL AND THE DRIVER'S SIDE CABLE ON THE TAILGATE BROKE. I WAS NOT INJURED BUT WAS UPSET BECAUSE I THOUGHT MAYBE THERE WOULD BE DAMAGE TO MY TAILGATE, THAT IT MAY MAY DENTED OR SPRUNG. I PURCHASED A NEW CABLE AND INSTALLED. I QUESTIONED THE CABLE AS TO HOW IT LOOKED WHEN BROKEN. IT ALMOST LOOKS AS THOUGH IT WAS CUT. THE CABLE BEING COVERED DID NOT SHOW ANY SIGNS OF WEAR. I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THE CABLE SHOULD HAVE BROKEN IN STRANDS. IT JUST SEEMS TO BE AN UNUSUAL BREAK. *AK
