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.

2014 Chevy Silverado. Drove the truck 0.9 miles from my residence to bank to withdraw money from ATM. Noticed a strong fuel odor when I exited the vehicle. Verified fuel leak while the truck was running. Had the vehicle towed to local Chevrolet dealership where they inspected and confirmed Fuel Leak under the manifold. Removed intake and found low pressure line, at the high pressure is blown off. All 4 retaining tabs were broken and secondary latch was laying off to the side. No warning lamps and no other symptoms were noticed prior to failure. No tampering or previous repairs in area. This is a major safety/fire risk, l am lucky no one was hurt.

My 2014 Silverado had a hose leak in 2018. Three years later I have the exact same issue. It’s a refrigerant leak. It has not been inspected this time around because it’s clear that this will be an ongoing expensive problem that I cannot afford. It’s in the 100’s out here and even hotter in a vehicle. My family and are getting sick from heat exhaustion I need immediate relief, please.

I chose a used 2014 chevy silverado with 180k miles. I met my salesperson, bernard, on site at pugmire ford, in carrollton, ga. When I test drove the vehicle, the truck had off road tires, so I requested that pugmire put regular tires on the truck before taking possession. They agreed and the truck was delivered a few days later. Soon after delivery, I noticed a soft noise seemingly coming from the engine. I informed my salesperson bernard of the issue. He asked me to bring the truck back for review. I did & bernard told me 'it had something to do with the exhaust so don't worry about it. It will go away after a few drivecycles'. I didn't believe him so I had the obd checked, that indicated that the catalytic converter had failed. I sent the document to bernard, then I asked if the vehicle had a recent emissions inspection, he said he didn't know. He apologized, but stated that they would not be responsible for any repairs to the vehicle. At this point, I reminded bernard 1. It is illegal to sell a vehicle that cannot pass emissions 2. That my bank had not yet mailed the check. With that mind, pugmire ford finally agreed to pay for the replacement of the catalytic converter. So I agreed to authorize my bank to send the check. Pugmire had arranged for the truck to be fixed at g&s auto and they paid for the work. But after repair, the check engine light returned. So I took it back to g&s to ask why. That's when they determined the catalytic converter had failed due to internal engine damage. They recommended another shop for a 2nd opinion. That shop is called all pro automotive. All pro confirmed the damage and provided a quote for the repairs. Pugmire ford voided all claims of the vehicle being an an 'as-is' purchase when they paid to replace the catalytic converters. They took ownership of it, and opted out after they received the check from my bank.

Flex fuel sensor malfunction, causing check engine light to go on and inability to remote start car. Verified with local third-party shop that nothing else would be causing this. Did not take into local dealership as have had previous issues with incorrectly fixing a voluntary recall so we utilized the third party shop instead. Located a gm special coverage bulletin (#14289) from 2014 that included our make/model regarding this specific issue, but the VIN is not included in the recall. But chevrolet can not tell me why the vehicle is not included and cannot look up the specific coverage I was talking about. This has happened several times over the course of about a year, mainly in the wintertime.

When fueling vehicle, the pump stops continuously, as the handle shuts off as fuel will not flow into tank. Fuel is unable to flow into tank, so handle shuts off. You have to fuel at only a trickle. You spend twenty minutes to try and fill the vehicle. If the system is for vapor control it has failed because of poor design. You spend seven times more time,, standing around playing with the fueling handle to get some fuel into the system, than a similar vehicle next to you.

The truck has a raw fuel smell under hood and drawn in the cabin when the engine is running both while stationary and moving. Attached is len lyall chevrolet's diagnosis of leaking high pressure fuel lines under the intake manifold. This vehicle has been driven 40,866 miles. I was told this is not covered by powertrain warranty but by the 3 year 36,000 mile warranty. There is one (tsb #15-na-002) and two recall/ campaigns (#14858 and #13331) for this known failure. This is a safety, health and emissions concern due to possible fire, high/ failing evaporative emissions, and respiratory health problems. I feel this vehicle system failure should be covered by warranty or emissions warranty.

Purchased new from dealer, I have already had it in for corrosion at three months, 8+ recalls. Now it won't shift correctly when slowing down (stoplight) and then taking off again. It idles rough all the time and even dies at take-offs unless I can finagle the gas pedal just right. I took it in to a great dealership, they acknowledge it idles rough, however, they said gm said that is normal. The corrosion started at month 3, and progressively getting worse. I took it back in for the corrsion and gm told the dealship I am on my own to pay for the (same location) corrsion repair, as the warranty was up (36,500 miles).

On my 2014 chevy silverado when I was filling the tank with gas the fill neck partially broke loose and I spilled about a cup of gas at a local gas station. I looked to see a plastic plug had broken causing the fill neck to come loose when fueling. I reported this to the dealer who informed me they have has "a couple dozen occurrences similar" they said they would replace the defective part with the same part. This is one fastener that needs to be metal and held in with a lock washer. (not plastic) see pix. This should be a recall item --see my fix with a metal bolt vs the defective plastic plug that comes from the factory. Pls take action before someone burns up in a fire due to these fill neck fastener problem. Thank you. [xxx] the vehicle was parked at a gas station when the fill neck partially broke loose and dropped down,spilling gasoline.

Did not feel safe but drove to nearest dealership with vehicle jumping and missing out, about 4 blocks. Diagnoses was faulty fuel injector at 4577 miles on vehicle. After picking up vehicle when repair was done it missed out again but no engine light. Dealership could not duplicate the problem. Hope this isn't going to be ongoing issue.
