Tank Assembly problems of the 2000 Chevrolet Suburban

Fuel tank strap rusted and broke causing fuel tank to drop.

: the contact stated while driving at various speeds, the check engine light illuminated. Afterwards, the odor of gasoline was present. The vehicle was seen by a dealer for inspection. The dealer determined the fuel tank assembly was cracked and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was taken to an independent repair shop for replacement of the fuel tank assembly which corrected the problem.

Fuel leak with full tank on level ground. Appears similar to defect summary ea04026. Vehicle had had fuel sensor replaced 06/2002 at 36000 miles for sporadic fuel gage / temp gage failures. Expect this is caused by the melted electrical terminals at pump module. Possibly related to sensor replacement. Does not leak on level after driving 10 miles after fillup, but will leak if pointed down hill - very noticeable fuel leak. Certainly a fire hazard. Have talked with Chevrolet 1-800-222-1020. They acknowledge the "engineering analysis" but will not authorize footing the bill for repairs.
