Fuel Pump problems of the 2000 GMC Yukon

GMC Yukon 2000 third fuel pump since purchased car new. Gm refuse to recall mine. What can we do?.

I kept smelling fuel fumes. The Yukon will not start. I started looking up recalls on the site and found one. Nhtsa campaign 05v155000. Component: fuel system, gasoline: delivery: fuel pump.

My 2000 Yukon's fuel pump failed while driving our family on hwy 94 east. The vehicle was towed to the service station who happened to have approx. 20 failed fuel pump modules and assured me that they will install the upgraded pump that does not "burn" when the vehicle operated with low fuel level!!! I googled the failure and came to your recall 05v155000 and the gm 05027 but GMC does not honor it for my VIN number??? what is surprising is that when we bought the new pump from the dealer they had the "upgraded" acdelco one on the self but other than that I should have no problem according to our VIN number!!! so I thought that if every GMC owner reports here maybe they will get their act together there in gm and install something of a better quality fuel delivery system in their $40k vehicles!!! a very upset but loyal gm owner.

The contact owns a 2000 GMC Yukon xl 2500. The contact stated that he had to replace the fuel pump three times within the last four years. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who was unable to diagnose the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was contacted who did not offer any assistance because the vehicle was not included in the recall under NHTSA campaign id number: 05v155000 (fuel system, gasoline:delivery:fuel pump). The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 90,000 and the current mileage was 150,000.

Fuel pump is whistling and fuel leak is apparent when parked overnight in garage. Already replaced one pump at 96,000 miles. Already had service on the melted wires 2 years ago. Can gm provide the cost of the gm brand fuel pump so it can be replaced?.

: the contact stated while driving at highway speeds, the fuel pump assembly stopped functioning without warning which caused the engine to stall. The vehicle was towed to the dealer for replacement of the fuel pump. There was a NHTSA recall # 06e043000 regarding the fuel system. The vehicle was not included in the recall due to the VIN. The manufacturer was alerted of the incident.

: the contact stated the fuel gauge readings were inaccurate. The dealer replaced the fuel pump which corrected the problem. There is a NHTSA recall # 05v155000, concerning the fuel pump. The VIN was not included in the recall. Updated 8/14/2006 - the fuel pump wiring melted inside the fuel tank.

: the contact stated the engine stalls at various speeds without warning. The vehicle has not been inspected by a mechanic. A NHTSA recall, #05v155000 was performed on the vehicle concerning, the fuel pump however, the recall did not remedy the problem. The dealership would not offer a second repair without charge under the recall.

: the contact stated while starting the vehicle the engine will turn over but not start. The contact has replaced the fuel pump three times, but this has not repaired the problem. There is NHTSA recall. # 05v155000, regarding the fuel pump; however, this vehicle is not included in the recall due to the VIN. Updated 06/01/2006.

My 2000 GMC Yukon started leaking gas from the fuel pump into the electrical of the fuel pump. This could be serious and could cause the truck to explode. There needs to be a recall on this before death occurs.

- inaccurate fuel level readings everytime the gas tank is full - anytime the truck is driven or in park it shows the empty and the low fuel light will come on and stays on until the vehicle is driven over a bump or something. - I looked on line and I noticed that there has been already a service recall issued but not for the Yukon, its for the Yukon xl however I contacted GMC and I explained that I am experiencing the same issue as the xl, there response was that there is no recall been issued for the Yukon. With in mind that both of these vehicle lines use or share most of their parts.

Our gas gauge on our 2000 GMC Yukon completely quit working. Took it in thinking it was an electrical problem and found out the fuel pump was broken. The problem that cost us a lot of money was that the fuel pump is located inside the gas tank and they had to replace the whole gas tank to fix the problem. First, why would this happen on a car this new with only around 50,000 miles and second, why put the fuel pump inside the gas tank so that it is so expensive to fix?.

When driving the vehicle at any speed, the vehicle would stall. This caused the driver to drift to the side of the road. The consumer had the vehicle towed to the dealer. The mechanic informed the owner that the fuel pump had failed. All the power steering and brakes were lost. This same part was previously replace at gm by the original owner.

Noticed on several occasions that vehicle seemed to be leaking fuel when parked and turned off. Most recent case occurred shortly after refueling. Dealer diagnosed as a "cracked fuel sending unit". Apparently this allows fuel to be spewed out of the tank when parked. Dealer indicated that it wasn't covered by warranty due to mileage. Co-worker discussed almost identical problem with his Yukon xl (except his spewed more fuel into his garage and need to be cleaned-up by hazmat team). This appears to be more than a random occurrence of a problem that has significant safety and environmental implications. I believe further investigation (by the NHTSA and general motors) is warranted.

I own a 2000 GMC Yukon xl. Over the past few months, I have had a problem with the vehicle continually blowing a fuse (ecm b fuse). Upon my own research into the circuitry, I determined the likely problem was the fuel pump. I replaced the fuel pump and upon removing and inspecting the old component, I discovered the hot wire (gray wire) which operates the pump motor had been hot enough to melt the insulation off the wire. Moreover, this hot wire had melted into one of the wires of the fuel level sending unit, which is a ground circuit. The problem I would like to bring to light here is that the fuel pump unit is inside the fuel tank. When this hot wire came into contact with the other wire, I assume there was a spark, or the potential for one. Why didn't my vehicle explode? I know there are thousands of these vehicles on the road, but I have not heard of any such explosions. I do know of another gm vehicle that had the same problem of exposed wires in the fuel tank. Please advise me of the danger level should this happen again. Thank you.

The vehicle stalled. The dealer diagnosed the problem as bad bare wires inside of fuel pump. The wires shorted which caused vehicle to stall.

Engine was running and in park when it stalled. Towed to dealer, fuel pump intake assembly was replaced.

Both rear power windows failed. I have two Yukons and this happened on both trucks. I also had to replace the fuel pump on one of the trucks and the second truck is acting up intermittently. I have other friends with the same problems on their trucks.

While driving at highway speeds vehicle lost power due to a faulty fuel pump. This was the third occurrence, which could have potentially caused a collision.
