7 Other Fuel System Pump problem of the 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 3500

Failure Date: 09/28/2015

Bought this vehicle new from dealer in sept 2015 with the dealer installed flatbed already on it, on their dealership lot. Fuel mileage was poor from the first, "engine light on" from the first; transmission dragging from the first day we bought it. Service advisors and the salesman said drive it and it will clear out. It got worse. The dealership finally sent it to the company who installed the flatbed for them, and they said there was an electrical short in the fuel pump which they replaced. The automatic transmission did not shift smoothly when we got it back, and the dealership said "it performs as designed". But, this is an automatic 6 speed Chevrolet transmission in a 2015 Chevrolet 3500 silverado with a 6. 0 gasoline engine. The transmission drags from 5th gear and then drags in 6th gear. I have to let off the gas pedal for the transmission to shift. If I let it drag out, it uses fuel and sounds like I am stuck in gear. We have taken it to 3 different Chevrolet dealerships, and they say something is wrong but we can't take it apart to fix it. The service manager said for me to drive it until the transmission "blows up because it is under warranty". I took it to a reliable transmission shop, but they won't touch it because it is under warranty, but they said that there is something wrong that it does not shift smoothly into all 6 gears. It only has 3600 miles. We have to drive it once a week to keep the battery charged. I don't pull or haul anything with it. This is happening both in city driving and highway driving.

8 Other Fuel System Pump problem of the 2013 Chevrolet Silverado 3500

Failure Date: 11/02/2014

While traveling on interstate 80, in iowa, the fuel transfer pump on rear fuel tank malfunctioned causing a pressurization of the forward fuel tank which resulted in fuel spray to from the forward fuel tank fill-neck. To stop the continuous loss of fuel , I had to pull fuse #18 from fuse box under hood for the rear fuel tank fuel transfer pump to shut it off. Rear fuel tank capacity is 40 gallons and forward fuel tank is 23. 5. I estimate a loss of 20 gallons on highway before I discovered the problem. This system runs the engine from the forward fuel tank, and the forward fuel tank level is maintained by a fuel pump which draws from the rear tank, not certain what caused this failure but if I had been sleeping in the truck, which I do as I operate this truck commercially for transport of RV's, there is a good change that the loss of over 20 gallons on the ground could have ignited. Truck has been in shop for 3 days as of 11/7/14 and they have been unable to determine cause of malfunction.
