Have government documents showing we entered country due to statement above. Car not used, garaged for several years but turned on periodically so car would not die and fluids changed. Would have filed the lemon law back then! I am looking into arbitration ,ftc or media. I have contacted mechanics for receipts and testimony.

The rear fuel tank strap broke by the bolt. The strap then pivoted down onto the drive shaft. The only reason the tank did not hit the road is because of the strength of the fuel filler hoses from the gas cap.

Since purchasing an 02 chevrolet surburban, 8.1l and 81k miles, I have experienced multiple random engine shut offs while highway driving, creating dangerous safety situations. The motor will restart after a 5 minute rest period and run fine, until the next failure which occurs without warning. The dealership has so far been unable to diagnose the problem, cleaned maf sensor, replaced thermostat and fan clutch, changed oil, checked fuel pump pressure. No engine failure codes reported. Researching internet information, I have discovered a recurring symptom related to an intermittent crankshaft position sensor (ckp) failure, that causes the engine to shut off. There is a a timed reset which allows the engine to restart.

I have a 2002 suburban that had a recall for the gas tank leaking when it is filled past 3/4 full. The recall work was done in december 2005. Then in march I smelt gas again I noticed a large puddle was under my vehicle as I pulled out of the garage. I carried it back in and they charged me $890.00 and stated since the recall work was done in december this would not be covered. I have the parts they replaced.

My wife and I have been very happy with the vehicle until a situation last year. Specifically, there is a known problem with the gas tank and gauge. The gas tank will be a 1/4 full but the car will not start because it thinks the gas tank is empty. My local gm dealer service center quoted me over $800 to fix this problem. It is a known gm defect. Gm's technical solution is document id # 1575648. It reads: vehicle with flexible fule (rpo l59) will not start, stalls and will not restart, loss of power, poor performance, and /or fuel guage reads inaccurate/incorrect (replace fuel sender/module assembly) #04-06-04-012b - (dec 6, 2004) * replace fuel sender /module assembly with redesigned fuel strainer and /or redsigned fuel level senor can you please help ? Thanks, brendan and lisa o'reilly.

During evacuation for hurricane rita as we were proceeding in traffic our 2002 chevy suburban just died. It was as if it was getting no fuel. We had a full tank. The RPM and power steering along with the engine just went dead. Since the hurricane I have talk to 3 other people with suburbans or yukons that this happen to. The dealership said it was the fuel pump. I now think something is wrong with these vehicles. I have the fuel pump taken from my suburban.
