2002 Chevrolet Suburban 1500

I HAVE A 2002 CHEVY SUBURBAN. THE TRUCK STARTED SHUTTING OFF AT ANY SPEED LEAVING ME WITHOUT POWER STEERING OR POWER BRAKES. I CHANGED THE FUEL FILTER THE NEXT DAY BUT PROBLEM STILL OCCURS. THEN CAR STALLED ON HIGHWAY AND WOULD NOT START AGAIN. CAR STARTED ABOUT 2 HOURS LATER AND THEN CUT OUT A BLOCK DOWN THE ROAD. STARTED THE CAR ANOTHER 3 HOURS LATER AND CAR WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT THE 5 MILES HOME. FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED ABOUT 50K MILES AGO. STALL IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION WITH NO STEERING AND LITTLE BRAKING ISSUE. WITH ALL OF THE INTERNET FEEDBACK, AND THE 2000 AND 2001 FUEL ISSUES WITH THIS MODEL, CHEVY SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. *TR

WHILE TRAVELING ON BUSY STREET, OUR 2002 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN SUDDENLY WAS WITHOUT POWER. PRESSING ON ACCELERATOR DID NOTHING AND VEHICLE COMPLETELY STALLED WHEN BRAKE WAS APPLIED. THIS LEFT US ATTEMPTING TO NAVIGATE FROM BUSY STREET WITH OUR THREE KIDS IN THE CAR WITH NO POWER STEERING OR BRAKES! WE WERE 140 MILES FROM HOME AND WHEN WE ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE BACK HOME, THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED AGAIN. THIS TIME ON BUSY FOUR LANE ROAD WITH LOTS OF TRAFFIC. THE VEHICLE STALLED OUT AGAIN LEAVING US ON SIDE OF BUSY ROAD AT ON RAMP LOCATION. THIS WAS NOT FIRST TIME THAT THIS HAS OCCURRED. WE HAVE HAD 5 OTHER INCIDENCES WITH THIS VEHICLE. GM IS NO HELP. THEY ACT LIKE THEY HAVE NEVER HAD ANY REPORTS OF SUCH PROBLEMS, YET MANY CAN BE FOUND ONLINE. WE HAD OUR VEHICLE TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR CENTER SINCE THE GM DEALERSHIP REPAIR SHOP WAS MORE INTERESTED IN TELLING US THAT THEY COULDN'T FIX IT ON THAT DAY BUT THEY DID HAVE A RENTAL CAR SERVICE ON LOT. I HOPE THAT SOON ATTENTION WILL BE GIVEN TO THIS OBVIOUS DEFECT IN THIS VEHICLE BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED. BUT THEN AGAIN THAT IS WHAT IT TOOK FOR ATTENTION TO BE GIVEN TO TOYOTA PROBLEMS. PLEASE TAKE ACTION FOR THIS MATTER BEFORE LIVES ARE LOST!!!! *TR

I HAVE AJ 2002 CHEVY SUBURBAN W/144K MILES ON IT. THE FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED WHILE STILL UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE IF THE FUEL LEVEL GOT TOO LOW IT WOULD NOT START. IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS HAVE HAD THE INTERMITTENT SHUT OFF PROBLEM LISTED ON OTHER COMPLAINTS. I HAVE HAD IT DO IT ON ROUGH ROADS AND INTERSTATE HIGHWAYS. SAME THING, ENGINE STOPS, WAIT 3-5 MINUTES ENGINE STARTS, SEEMS LESS PREVALENT WHEN TANK IS FULL. DEALERSHIP SAYS CHEVY SEES NO OVERALL PROBLEM WITH IT, MY MECHANIC TELLS ME A NEW FUEL PUMP IS NOT TOO EXPENSIVE BUT THE REAL COST IS THE LABOR TO TAKE THE FUEL TAKE OFF AND REPLACE IT. TOTAL $900-1100, THAT IS OUTRAGEOUS ESPECIALLY FOR A PROBLEM GM KNOWS IT HAS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HOUSTON TOLLWAY AT 65 MPH, MY 2002 SUBURBAN SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING LOST POWER AND THE ENGINE SHUTDOWN. I MANAGED TO GET THE VEHICLE ONTO THE SHOULDER WITHOUT INCIDENT AFTER ATTEMPTING TO RESTART THE ENGINE WHILE TRYING TO STEER CLEAR OF TRAFFIC. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AND WAS TOWED TO LONE STAR CHEVROLET IN HOUSTON, TEXAS. THE BILL WAS 1045.10. THEY REPLACED THE FUEL MODULE AND THE FUEL FILTER AND TOLD ME THAT THERE HAD BEEN SOME PROBLEMS WITH GM VEHICLES DATING BACK TO 1999 MODELS ON THE SAME PROBLEM. MINE HAD ONLY 70158 MI. I THINK GM SHOULD REIMBURSE ME FOR THE COST OF REPAIR. I TALKED TO A CUSTOMER WHO HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM ON HIS 1999 GMC SUBURBAN AND THEY FILED A COMPLAINT WITH GM AND WAS REIMBURSED FOR THE REPAIR. FAIR IS FAIR AND I EXPECT NOTHING LESS FROM THEM. *JB

2002 CHEVROLET SURBURBAN ENGINE STALLED WHILE BEING DRIVEN AT 70MPH DOWN FREEWAY. WAS ABLE TO GET ENGINE RESTARTED WHILE STILL ROLLING. NO REPAIR MADE YET, SERVICE TECHNICIAN SAID MANY POSSIBLE CAUSES AND WOULD BE EASIER TO DIAGNOSE IF IT WOULD NOT START. WIFE'S 2000 MODEL CHEV SUBURBAN HAD ALMOST IDENTICAL PROBLEM 01/21/2002. *NM
