ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INTEGRATED TRAILER BRAKE CONTROL

4 weeks ago, constant repeated loud chime and visual warning stating " service trailer brake system". This is constantly alarming and unable to be cancelled or acknowledged throughout the drive. This results in distracted driving. Furthermore, it occurs both when towing a trailer or not towing. I have noticed decreased braking of the trailer as well. Have not gone to dealer yet.

ENGINE

Vehicle has a cp4 fuel pump. This pump has a high failure rate. Upon failure the vehicle shuts down and cannot be restarted. This can happen at any time and anywhere. Can happen while on a highway or freeway. This vehicle is used to haul heave loads. This failure can ending up to $10,000 or more to repair. This failure has not happened on this vehicle yet. Am very concerned about me safety and the safety of others because of the high failure rate.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

I SEE THERE WAS A RECALL FROM GM #17399 FOR THE 2015 DUAL FUEL TANK SENDING UNIT PROBLEM. THIS IS ONLY FOR THE 6.0 L GAS ENGINE. I HAVE THE DURAMAX 6.6L ENGINE IN MINE. I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MINE. THE SENDING UNIT DID NOT TURN OFF THE TRANSFER PUMP AND OVERFILLED THE FRONT TANK CAUSING FUEL TO POUR OUT ALL OVER THE ROAD. I CAUGHT IT BEFORE THE DRIVE LINE CAUSED ANY DAMAGE. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER AND WHILE WE MOVED IT TO PULL IT UP ON THE TOW TRUCK IT WAS PUSHING FUEL OUT OF THE FILLER NECK OF THE FRONT TANK. THE DEALER SHIP REFUSED TO COVER THE COST SAYING ITS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. THEY SAID IT WASN'T THE SAME PROBLEM. IT SURE WAS. I HAVE ATTACHED THE REPAIR ORDER AND THE RECALL NOTIFICATION BELOW. I AM WONDERING IF IT IS PART OF THE RECALL AND THEY ARE JUST NOT DOING THEIR JOB AND HONERING IT.

STEERING

I WAS TRAVELING ON A BUSY ROADWAY AT 40 MPH WHEN FUEL FILTER WARNING LIGHT CAME ON SUDDENLY AND VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER - INCLUDING THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKING. THANKFULLY I HAD NOT YET ENTERED THE HIGHWAY AND WAS ABLE TO SLOW VEHICLE DOWN BUT WITH GREAT DIFFICULTY AND NOT INJURE ANYONE AROUND AND THAT DAY WAS NOT TOWING A LOAD. VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESTART. I HAD IT TOWED TO NEAREST DEALERSHIP WHO THEN INFORMED ME THAT THE "BOSCH CP4 FUEL PUMP" HAD EXPLODED SENDING METAL SHRAPNEL THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE ENGINES FUEL SYSTEM. THE ONLY FIX WAS THE ENTIRE REPLACEMENT OF THE FUEL SYSTEM AT A COST OF OVER $11K. I HAD JUST PURCHASED THE TRUCK 3 MONTHS PRIOR. UPON HEARING THIS, I SEE THIS HAS BEEN A FREQUENT SAFETY PROBLEM AFFECTING A WHOLE LINE OF 2011 - CURRENT GM, FORD, DODGE, AND JEEP DIESEL VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH THE CP4 PUMPS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS LAWSUITS UNDERWAY FOR THIS FAILURE INCLUDING ONE OF A MAJOR ACCIDENT WHILE TOWING (WHAT THESE TRUCKS ARE MADE FOR) BECAUSE OF LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND BRAKING UPON ENGINE STALL AFTER FUEL PUMP EXPLOSION. THE GM TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN FOR REFERENCE IS #16-NA-102. IN ADDITION, THE NHTSA HAS RECEIVED TWO MANUFACTURER TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS ON THIS VERY SAFETY ISSUE. THIS IS VERY MUCH A RECALL WORTHY SAFETY ISSUE. LOSING ENGINE POWER AND LOSS TO ALL POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKING IN THESE VEHICLES IS BEYOND DANGEROUS. IN ADDITION, WHEN IT IS HAPPENING TO VEHICLES DESIGNED TO TOW WEIGHTS IN EXCESS OF 30K POUNDS TRAILER LOAD BEHIND THE AFFECTED VEHICLE THE DANGER IS AMPLIFIED THAT MUCH GREATER. PLEASE ISSUE A RECALL IMMEDIATELY. PEOPLE'S LIVES ARE VERY MUCH AT STAKE FOR GM'S FAILURE TO REMEDY A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE. GM LISTS IT AS ONLY A "HARD START OR NO START". THEY DO NOT RECOGNIZE IN WRITING THE DANGER OF FULL POWER LOSS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHICH IS MOST OFTEN HOW IT PRESENTS ITSELF.

VISIBILITY/WIPER

SITTING IN A PARKING LOT ALLOWING THE PICKUP TO WARM UP, THE REAR DEFROSTER WAS ON AND STARTED HAVING A CRACKLING SOUND AND SMOKING. THE NOISE AND SMOKE STOPPED WHEN THE REAR DEFROSTER WAS TURNED OFF, HOWEVER APPROXIMATELY A MINUTE LATER THE WINDOW SHATTERED AND SPRAYED GLASS SHARDS INTO THE CAB AND ON THE BACK SEAT. THE PICKUP WAS STATIONARY AND THERE WAS NO POSSIBILITY THAT THIS WAS CAUSED BY AN IMPACT. BASED ON THE PATTERN OF BROKEN GLASS IT COULD BE SEEN COMING FROM THE CORNER OF THE WINDOW WHERE THE HEATING ELEMENT IS. I CALLED GM AND THEY INDICATED THEY WOULD NOT LOOK AT THE VEHICLE FOR AT LEAST 30 DAYS TO EVEN DETERMINE THE ISSUE.
