While traveling on highway another vehicle made a sudden stop in front of consumer's vehicle. She t-boned him ondriver's side door, and driver's side airbag didn' t deploy. Dealership was aware ofproblem.
While driving vehicle the exhaust system vibrates andonecan smell fumes. Took to the dealer 4 times and they said that it was a design problem.
Pulled into garage and there was a a strong smell of gasoline. Discovered a gasoline puddle where the fuel lines go into the throttle body. According to the servicing dealer, this leak, wh en bad enough forces gasoline into the main wire harness .this leak , as i understand it, resulted from the failure of "o" rings where the fuel line goes into the throttle body.i think the "o" ring failure might result from defective "o" rings.i don"t know that for positive.i can nopt help but think this failure is a signigicant safety hazard.i am awareof two more similar failuresin this area.in addition to the safety hazard the c ost for repair of this failure was $2,268.25.thank you for your interest in this failure.
Truck over-steers to the left, especially on a left hand curve. The steering wheel will momentarly pull hard to the left - then return to center. During this time the vehicle will unexpectedly veer left, especially if you do not have a firm grip on the wheel and counter act the hard pull. A local chevrolet dealer indictaed this was a common occurance on these vehicles and that replacing a sensor in the power steering unit would fix it. However, this repair is not covered, since the vehicle is out of warranty and chevrolet has not issued a recall. I checked nhtsa's web site and found numerious complaints that are very similar to mine. It appears to me that this is a safety issue - chevrolet has aproblem and they and the nhtsa knows about it - and that there should be a program in place to make the public aware of the problem and get it resolved - without it costing the consumers 100's of dollars.
