    My module fuel pump flow control part# 20759945 is not working and for some reason it is recalled for some vins for 2008 but not mine. If it is the same part and same problem why is not recalled for all? Chevy has a tsb #14515b but company will only say engineers decide who gets the recall. *tr

    The engine died without warning while driving at about 30 mph. Power steering and brakes were lost making the vehicle very difficult to control. I managed to stop the vehicle safely and had it towed to a chevrolet dealership. The cause of the engine die out was found to be an internal fault in the engine control module.

    I have a short in my fuel pump flow control module. It causes my car to stall while while in operation, check engine light comes on, sometimes it doesn't start, etc. This issue has haunted me for about a year now. I found a recall bulletin from gm; #14515b. This is the exact part # and issue that i'm having but my vin # isn't part of the recall. Is it possible that my vin was missed?
