| Noticed fuel smell after exiting vehicle. looked under vehicle to see fuel dripping on the ground directly below the fuel cell. further investigation revealed the fuel lines were severely corroded or rusted to the point of failure. also noticed the brake lines were also severely rusted. gm has sacrificed safety in place of cheap parts and materials. this is a major defect and a serious matter that needs to be rectified. someone will die with the brake and fuel line failures. *tr | |||

| While driving along on a mountain road, the check engine light came on and i suddenly lost power to maintain speed. the truck went into what is commonly called limp mode, unable to make any more than 10 mph. i discovered that a problem common to this make model year occurred. the wiring harness to the fuel injjector (diesel) shorted to injector #2 and #7. the computer shut down the fuel to that cylinder bank as a result of the short. this is commonly spoken of in internet blogs and gm has a tsb for a repair. it is tsb 05-06-04 047b (i believe). it calls for replacing the wiring harness as it has become worn due to improper engineering and placement. the parts have been updated to prevent this. it costs $576.00 to repair. i believe this should require a recall. what would have happened to me had this occurred on a highway at highway speed. unable to maintain any speed, ii could have been involved in an accident or cause one. *tr | |||
