    Fuel/Propulsion System

    Warranty ended in july 2019. Check engine light came on in nov 2019 with a p050d code. Vehicle only has 32,0000 miles. Took it to dealership (autonation chevrolet in gilbert, az) and was told two fuel injectors were the cause and needed replaced. The dealership said one of the injector fuel rods and gasket was installed backwards at the factory. I pushed for gm to pay for the repair since no previous injector work…

    Fuel/Propulsion System

    My complaint is vibration or a shake. It's mostly occurs or when i experience it is when i'm at a idle. I took it in to the dealer and was told it was normal. I spoke with several mechanics and a few mentioned that it could be the oil pressure sensor filter that needs to be replaced but since their is not a light popping up for a code,they can't do anything about it. I've never felt this in other chevy or gmc trucks…

    2800 mileage since new because i have problems fueling the tank. I cannot get fuel to pump into the tank correctly. It's been a problem since i purchased the truck. I've taken it to many different gas stations thinking it was a gas pump issue. The pump handle clicks off when trying to fill the tank. It makes no difference how fast you try to fill the tank or how deep the nozzle is inserted into the tube. I had a…

    I had two episodes of sudden unintended acceleration while driving highway speeds on a highway. Truck is weeks old- 1500miles only. Brakes still worked so i was able to stop. Rpms continued to escalate in neutral and park. Had to turn off engine quickly to abort the problem. I'm taking the truck in for evaluation tomorrow. My wife and two oldest sons were in the vehicle. *tr

    Electrical System · Fuel/Propulsion System · Steering

    Vehicle intermittently loses all electrical controls: power steering, engine power, stabilitrak, airbags. All electrical systems are compromised and the vehicle loses all power. Once the vehicle is turned off and back on a few times it will go into a 'limp mode'. I've been stranded in the vehicle 4 times. I have had this happen twice while driving down the freeway, once driving in a parking lot, and twice when first…
