AN APPROVED GM REPAIR FACILITY HAS REPLACED THE FUEL INJECTOR PUMP ON THIS VEHICLE 5 TIMES. IT CAUSES THE TRUCK TO HESITATE WHEN ACCELERATING AND JERK SEVERLY WHEN DECELERATING. I KNOW OF OTHER VEHICLES OF THE SAME MODEL THAT HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THESE PUMPS. I AM CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR ANOTHER TRUCK TO PURCHASE AND CANNOT GET A FAIR TRADE-IN ON THIS TRUCK BECAUSE OF THE REPAIRS THAT HAVE BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM WITH NEWER MODELS IF IT EXISTS AND TO COMPENSATE PRESENT UNSATISFIED OWNERS.
