| I bought this truck in 1997 and within 30 days the fuel pump went out.i took my truck to chevy land to have the pump replaced. this took over 3 weeks and we had to go threw about 4 or 5 pumps . i then went out and bought a brand new pump, not a rebuilt one and then it ran o.k for a short time and back to doing the same thing again. we took it back in again and the pump was bad again. i had told them to rebuild my pump that was on my truck because it was very new and i was told by chevy land that they would rebuild my fuel pump, but they didnt, they said they sent my pump off to be fixed and replaced it with a older rebuilt one they had there. i pick up my truck and within 24 hours the truck was doing the very same thing as before we replaced this pump. we called up to chevy land and they had the truck towed in to the shop. this is where the truck sat for many days and weeks waiting for someone to fix it . but they couldnt. the service manger even said he couldnt fix it . they had no idea to what was wrong now with my truck, and that they just couldnt fix it. so it sat for many weeks . when i spoke to the service dept to see when it was going to be done with my truck .they told me that they were done with it as he said they just couldnt fix it. so what was i to do with a truck that wont run. i then went back up to the shop to tell them we would be back to get the truck when i saw that my truck had been parked outside all this time in the ran with both front windows left down and both my batterys were completely dead . i then had to go buy two more batterys for the truck i have spent over 11000.00 dollars in repairs for this truck in the last year and this is where i spent all of the money at is chevy land. but when i take a non running truck into the repair shop and months go by and my truck is left to rot in the rain and all the time telling me that you cant fix it so on that note i took my truck and had it towed back home and stopped payment.help me please. | |||
