Other Fuel System problem #1

Called to have recall number 07e015000 at delphi. Paul (customer service rep) clearly would not let me have the recall. , after answering all the question.

Other Fuel System Fuel Gauge problem #2

While driving 30 mph, the consumer slowed down at a traffic light behind other cars and the engine unexpectedly died. Consumer made several attempts to restart the vehicle, the attempts were unsuccessful. The gas tank level gauge displayed there was gas. There was about 1/8 of an inch display that gas was still in the tank. Consumer realized he was out of gas after he could not restart the vehicle. Consumer had to send his nephew to a corner gas station to get some gas to put into the vehicle. Once the gas was put in the vehicle it restarted and the consumer proceeded to the nearest gas station. No other problems. This was the first and only incident of this type. Consumer did not consult the dealership about the eproblem. Consumer felt this was a safety issue because the gas gauge indicator did not go all the way down to empty when it was empty. The consumer did contact the dealer.

Other Fuel System Pump problem #3

My 1987 chevy cavaliar shut off in the middle of driving multiple times. The first time I heard clicking in the cluster and the theft system light turns on and my fuel pump shuts down. I have been in very critical places while this situation takes place. The theft system has shut my vehichle off on the highway, in the intersection ect. . I have tryed to reset this system numerous times. I have come to the knowledge that this is a serious problem with many chevy cavaliars and other gm models. This should be a recall and should be fixed. I, a loyal gm customer, should not have to drive a unpredictable vehichle that has security problems that are due to the original making of the system. I have no money to pay for this and am stuck with this problem. It is very unsafe.
