Vehicle is upfitted as a school bus. Forward fuel tank strap failed in operation. Our company operates more than 100 of these vehicles and we experience a failure of fuel tank straps at a rate of about one vehicle per month. If the 2nd strap would also fail the gasoline tank would become dislodged and present a fire hazard. This is even more critical as these vehicles are carrying students as a school bus. We perform visual inspections of the straps at 6 month intervals (per pennsylvania these vehicles are subject to semi-annual state inspection). There were no symptoms of the problem before this failure. There are never symptoms of the problem before any failure. Failed fuel tank straps on this were replaced by gm dealer (faulkner GMC, 705 auto park blvd, west chester, PA 19382) (invoice #677130 - invoice date Feb 21 2025).
Complaint 11102768 filed previously for crankshaft sensor and camshaft sensors. New complaint : vehicle would not start 7/11/2018. Called chevy dealer. Was told to remove and replace relay in fuse block. Vehicle started. Dealer informed us that they have had to replace faulty fuse block in many similar vehicles. Our vehicle is a 2013 chevy Express cutaway 4500. Model g33803 159" 6. 0 gvw 14,200. It is a forest river sunseeker RV. They have had to replace them in ambulances and other heavy trucks. The part number for the fuse/relay block is 22767373 this item is not on recall list. Please help. The vehicle has just over 9000 miles on it and these items are major, potentially dangerous problems. Thank you.
V=incident has occurred several times. Each time vehicle taken to dealer who "corrects" the problems. Less than a 1000 miles later, problem reoccurs. Vehicle will be travelling when check engine & def indicator lights come on. Message on odometer reads "exhaust fluid quality poor" . . . Xx miles until speed reduced to 65 mph. After each incident the dealer indicates it is a sensor problem, not a fluid quality problem. This unit is an emergency response ambulance in a rural area that must transport emergency patients at least 30 miles to nearest hospital.
Will not take fuel.
