Heavy smell of gasoline in the cab and the bed of my truck as well as outside of the truck began on February 23, 2023. The truck is also harder to turn over or start since the smell has begun. Due to the gasoline smell, it is causing a nauseous feeling, severe headaches, coughing and a red flush over my wife’s face when she is in the truck. The transmission line leak has been leaking for quite some time and I have to replace the transmission fluid a least a quart of fluid every two weeks. I was not notified of the Safety Recalls for the Fuel pump pressure regulator and the Transmission oil cooler line leak/ fire danger on my 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. I have taken my truck to be assessed by the Chevrolet Dealer on 03/13/2023, and they determined that my truck does indeed have both of these Safety Recall problems but that they will not repair them. They stated it is a closed recall and my 95k+ miles were too high. The Safety Recall Bulletin #14121 and #13370A both state no mileage limitation and declare my make and model affected by these Safety Failures. I have paid off the loan to my truck early only to be unable to drive it safely or enjoy it. I have never been late on any of my payments and was proud to pay it off early. This model truck has had several Recalls including an incident with the front wheel falling off due to a mechanical failure, that was shocking and frightening when it happened after only owning it for approx. 2 years. With the Fuel leaking and carbon monoxide, and the transmission fluid leaking, the Dealer should take responsibility and repair these problems that they know are a Safety and Fire issue as stated in the Recall Bulletins and make my vehicle operable again. I am only asking that the Dealership provide me with the Repairs they said are needed to the Failures caused by improper installations and or Faulty equipment from the manufacturer as stated in the Safety Bulletin Recalls.

My truck has 143282 miles. Approximately 6May2022 I started receiving a “Trailer Brake System” warning message on my dash accompanied by an audible alarm. Two days later after towing a trailer (now with NO or Intermittent brake control) I had numerous warning lights for the transmission and fuel systems that was diagnosed by Wheelers Chevrolet (in Coloma, WI) as a High pressure fuel pump failure. The trailer brake warning still exists and was diagnosed as corroded wires at the trailer brake control module. This should not be occurring as all of these connections are sealed by O-rings. The “Service Trailer Brake System” warning still occurs at start-up as well as while driving even when NO trailer is being towed or connected. This becomes distracting, and is causing other systems on my truck to fail when they should not be. This is beyond a safety concern and should have some serious investigation done.
