Four problems related to tank assembly have been reported for the 2003 Chevrolet Suburban. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Fuel gauge malfunctioned on our 2003 chevy Suburban. It indicated more gasoline was in the car than was actually in the tank.
2003 chevy Suburban 1/2 ton four wheel drive inaccurate fuel level reading on gauge. Ran out of fuel multiple times. At first fuel tank was empty when gauge read 1/8 tank, now empty when gauge reads 1/4 tank. Have not replaced any parts yet as cost would be too much at this time. Just being aware of how much fuel we have used. No injuries or crashes, but this could lead to something serious on the road or expressway if the engine were to shut down because of lack of fuel.
Chevy Suburban 2003 lt 1500 flex fuel v8. Developed fuel tank leak. Remedy is to replace fuel tank. Gasoline dripping down back side of fuel tank. Potential fire/safety hazard to driver and occupants. Vehicle mileage 120k. Age less than 48 months. No collisions except minor to rear bumper. Cost of repair over $1,000. 00.
On both my 2003 chevy Suburban, and 2002 chevy k2500 truck, the gas gauge reads erroneously. Tends to get hung up at 1/4 tank, then later goes to empty. . . At which time I've run out of gas! chevy replaced the burb fuel sensor twice, and the truck once. . . Under warranty. Past warranty they will not help. Safety issue: I ran out of gas in downtown atlanta, interstate traffic during rush hour, had to weave my dead truck through 70 mph traffic to the left shoulder. Very dangerous move. . . Luckily was not rear-ended! have friends w/ same truck. . . Same problem.
