2010 Chevrolet Traverse Fuel System Problems

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON IN CAR. CODE STATED THAT IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULE. WHEN I RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE I FOUND WHERE GM RECALLED HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES TO INCLUDE CHEVY TRAVERSES DURING THE 2010 MODEL YEAR BECAUSE OF FAULTY FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULES OR (CHASSIS ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES). GM RECALL, BULLETIN # 14515B. I SPOKE TO SEVERAL GM DEALERS IN TOWN WHO GAVE ME THE RUN AROUND ABOUT HOW THIS WAS NOT A SAFETY RECALL BECAUSE OF FAULTY PARTS BUT AN "INFORMATIONAL BULLETIN". LONG STORY SHORT I HAD TO PAY 300 DOLLARS TO GET A NEW MODULE PROGRAMMED. THE DAMAGE WOULD HAVE BEEN A LOT WORSE IF I WOULD HAVE LET THEM RUN MORE DIAGNOSTICS PRIOR TO FIXING THE ISSUE. I COMPLAINED TO GM WHO SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL ON MY VEHICLE AND REFERRED ME TO NHTSA. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND THE MODULE CAN BECOME CONTAMINATED BECAUSE OF WET CONDITIONS. ON JUNE 12, 2017 CHEYENNE WY HAD A VERY LARGE HAIL STORM THAT MY VEHICLE WAS CAUGHT IN WHILE DRIVING IN THE CITY AND THE MODULE MAY HAVE GOTTEN WET CAUSING THE PROBLEM. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT GM RECALLED THIS SAME PART ON ALL THESE OTHER VEHICLES TO INCLUDE 2010 TRAVERSES BUT FOR WHAT EVER REASON MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED. I BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE BECAUSE MY VEHICLE HAD THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS TO WHY THEY RECALLED ALL THESE OTHERS. I STILL HAVE THE FAULTY MODULE IF ANYONE WANTS TO CHECK IT OUT BECAUSE IT IS THE SAME PART AND PART NUMBER WHICH WAS RECALLED. MY VEHICLE SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL AND I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED MY MONEY FOR THIS REPAIR.

FUEL GAGE STARTED READING HALF FULL NO MATTER IF. TANK FULL OR EMPTY. DIGITAL MILES LEFT TO TRAVEL MATCH A HALF FULL TANK.

2010 CHEVY TRAVERSE LT GAS GAUGE IS ALL OVER THE PLACE,WAS ON THE EMPTY MARK WITH ABOUT 1/8 TANK GAS LEFT BUT GAUGE READ FULL OR MY GAUGE TO NOT READ CORRECTLY; AFTER FILLING, THE GAUGE WOULD NOT MOVE THE OPPOSITE WOULD OCCUR ALSO; THE GAUGE WOULD SHOW THE TANK WITH MORE GAS THAN WHAT I ACTUALLY HAD. HEY REPLACED THE FLOAT AND STILL NOT WORKING IN FACT IT'S WORSE. *TR

VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND GAS PEDAL STUCK AT ABOUT 65 MILES PER HOUR. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND BEGIN TRYING TO BRAKE THE VEHICLE. AT THE FIRST AVAILABLE OPPORTUNITY, I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE EXPRESSWAY. WHILE KEEPING BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE, I PLACED THE TRANSMISSION INTO PARK. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO REV RPMS AT THE EQUIVALENT OF ABOUT 65 MILES PER HOUR. I USED MY RIGHT HAND TO PULL THE ACCELERATOR UP AND THE ENGINE RETURNED TO A NORMAL IDLE. I NOTICED NO EVIDENCE OF THE FLOOR MAT BEING ON THE ACCELERATOR OR IN A POSITION TO CAUSE THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION OR THE CONTINUED ENGINE RAPID RPMS. THE SAME DAY, THE ACCELERATOR STUCK A SECOND TIME AND REQUIRED ME TO PULL THE GAS PEDAL UP IN ORDER TO GET THE ENGINE TO RETURN TO NORMAL RPMS. *TR
