2005 Chevrolet Suburban 1500

GAS SMELL WHEN IDLING....TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY FOUND THE (FLEXIBLE) FUEL LINE LEAKING. THEY SHOWED ME THE PROBLEM AND IT SURE LOOKED LIKE THE LINES WERE CROSSED WHEN THEY WERE INSTALLED, EVEN THE MECHANIC SAID SOMETHING TO THAT NATURE, BUT I WILL GUARANTEE YOU HE WOULD NEVER ADMIT THAT......IT IS GOING TO COST ME $651.00 TO HAVE JUST ONE LINE REPLACED............THE LINE WORE A HOLE THRU IT WHERE THE LINES WERE CROSSED AND RUBBING ON EACH OTHER. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON A TRIP TO FLORIDA WHEN AT 65 MPH MY SPEEDOMETER KEPT INCREASING AND PEGGED OUT AT THE 120 MPH MARK. I PULLED OVER TO TRY AND RESOLVE THE ISSUE BUT TO NO AVAIL IT STAYED STUCK AT THE 120 MPH MARK. WHEN I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE ALL MY CLUSTER GAUGES WERE PEGGED OUT: OIL, BATTERY, TEMP, AND EVEN GAS GAUGE. I ALSO STARTED GETTING INFO THAT MY AIRBAG SYSTEM NEEDED ATTENTION. FOUR WHEEL DRIVE LIGHT CAME ON JUST A DIFFERENT ARRAY OF MALFUNCTIONS CAME FLYING ACROSS MY DISPLAY. TO THIS DATE MY BATTERY GAUGE IS STILL PEGGED OUT MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON, SERVICE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE LIGHT STILL FLASHES INADVERTENTLY AND NOW MY DRIVERS SIDE HEATER AND CONTROLS ARE NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. BROUGHT IN TO REPAIR SHOP & THEY SAID NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED SO MY COST WOULD RUN WELL OVER $1500.00. RIDICULOUS. OWN UP CHEVY FIX THIS. *TR

SPEEDOMETER VERY ERRATIC, SHOWS EXCESSIVE SPEEDS (120MPH) OR DOESN'T REGISTER CORRECT SPEED AT ALL. CALLED DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES ABOUT PROBLEM AND NEVER TOLD ABOUT THE TSB ONLY THAT IT WOULD BE OVER $600 TO FIX. DID RESEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND TSB AND CALLED AGAIN. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD AND ONE THAT CHEVROLET SHOULD ADDRESS ACROSS THE BOARD WITH THE VEHICLES AFFECTED BY THIS. THEN WAS TOLD CAN'T FIX IT BECAUSE OF MILEAGE UNLESS I PAY OUT OF POCKET. NOW NEEDLE IS STUCK AT ZERO AND UNFORTUNATELY BEING MILITARY WE DON'T GET PAID ENOUGH TO JUST SHELL OUT $600+ ON A WHIM. SOMEONE NEEDS TO MAKE CHEVROLET TAKE CARE OF THEIR FAULTY PRODUCTS, IF YOU PAY FOR A PREMIUM PRODUCT YOU SHOULD GET ONE. *TR

MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED WITH A DEFECTIVE FUEL PUMP. I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL GAUGE AND DELAYED STARTS. I CHANGED THE PUMP AND NOTICED THE ORIGINAL PUMP WAS MISSING A SPRING ON ONE OF THE PUSH RODS. THE WEAR AND TEAR MADE THE PUMP HANG. I HAVE THE PUMP AND PHOTOS TO DELIVER. THIS PUMP IS A FLEX FUEL PUMP. THERE ARE SO MANY POSTS ON THIS DELAYED START ISSUE. I HAVE RECENTLY POSTED THE CAUSE OF MY ISSUE. I NOTICED THE DEFECT IMMEDIATELY BECAUSE I PERFORMED THE REPAIR AND NOT THE DEALER. THEY WERE QUICK TO OFFER ME A QUOTE FOR OVER A THOUSAND DOLLARS TO REPLACE A DEFECTIVE PART. *TR

WENT TO MOVE VEHICLE TO ATTACH LANDSCAPE TRAILER. BRAKES WENT DOWN TO THE FLOOR. UPON INVESTIGATION, FOUND BRAKE FLUID ON GROUND FROM DRIVER SIDE RIGHT FRONT. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO REPAIR STATION AND ASKED MECHANIC TO REPLACE BRAKE LINE AND CHECK ALL OTHER BRAKE LINES. MECHANIC ENDED UP REPLACING 80% OF LINES DUE TO CORROSION. THIS COULD HAVE ENDED UP RESULTING IN AN ACCIDENT IF THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING WITH THE TRAILER ATTACHED CARRYING ATV'S. IN ADDITION, THE CABLE HOLDING THE SPARE TIRE HAD TO BE CUT IN ORDER TO GET ACCESS TO REAR BRAKE LINES. THE CABLE WAS RUSTED MEANING THAT A TIRE COULD NOT BE CHANGED IN THE EVENT OF A FLAT. *TR

I HAVE A CHEVY SUBURBAN 2005 MY SPEEDOMETER HAS STOPPED WORKING. I ALSO HAVE A 2005 DURAMAX THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A FULL BLOWN RECALL PLACED ON ALL GMC/CHEVY VEHICLES. APPARENTLY THESE ARE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS PEOPLE WITH THIS ISSUE ACROSS THE U.S./ WORLD ACCORDING TO FORUMS I HAVE BEEN ON. WHILE THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OUT THERE FOR A VERY LIMITED GROUP OF GMC VEHICLES, MAKING LAWYERS RICH. INSTEAD OF TAKING CARE OF THE PEOPLE WHOM MAKE THIS WORLD ACTUALLY RUN. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO SERIOUSLY LOOKED INTO. MY NEXT STEP IS TO GET THE MEDIA INVOLVED SHOWING HOW AGAIN THE AVERAGE CONSUMER CAN GET SCREWED BY THE BIG COMPANIES. I AM NOT KEEPING MY MOUTH SHUT ABOUT THIS. THANK YOU *TR
