2004 SUBURBAN WITH LESS THAN 65000 MILES, CUTS OUT DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, SITTING AT TRAFFIC LIGHT, UPHILL OR DOWN HILL. VEHICLE GIVES NO WARNING, NO LIGHTS LIGHT UP, JUST ALL OF A SUDDEN NO POWER. CAN START BACK UP SOMETIMES IMMEDIATELY, SOMETIMES AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE, CALLED DEALER AND THEY SAID THERE IS NO RECALL EVEN THOUGH IT IS OBVIOUSLY A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

ON TUESDAY, JANUARY 29, 2008, I WAS DRIVING MY 2004 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN ON I-285 IN ATLANTA, GA. WHEN THE FUEL PUMP FAILED. I-285 IS AN EXTREMELY CONGESTED , SIX LANE WIDE, DANGEROUS ROADWAY. SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER EXPOSED ME AND 18 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER TO POSSIBLE CATASTROPHIC VEHICLE COLLISION. ALTHOUGH THIS VEHICLE HAS 130,000 MILES, IT IS METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED TO AVOID JUST THE VERY SITUATION THAT HAPPENED. THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO WARNING OF IMPENDING POWER LOSS. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO DALTON, GA. ( ABOUT 90 MILES NORTH OF ATLANTA) AND THE FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED. I HAVE HAD NO DRIVABILITY ISSUES SINCE. I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE SINCE 2004 AND PURCHASED IT WITH 4000 MILES. *TR

IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO FILL THE GAS TANK. EVEN WITH THE RUBBER BOOT SEALED AGAINST THE NECK, GASOLINE SPLASHES OUT ALL OVER THE GROUND. NO FIRE YET. THIS HAPPENS AFTER ONLY A FEW GALLONS IN PUT INTO A 31-GALLON TANK CONTAINING 8-10 GALLONS. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT AND TIME CONSUMING TO FILL THIS TANK. *JB
