2005 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500 4X4 FLEX FUEL, 5.3L. THIS VEHICLE'S INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DOES NOT WORK. TACHOMETER PEGS AND STICKS. THE SPEEDOMETER IS STUCK AT ZERO. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN THAT GENERAL MOTORS/GM SHOULD DO A FREE RECALL FOR AS MANY OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS. MY ABS SENSOR LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF NUMEROUS TIMES A DAY, AND CLUSTER STATES SERVICE AIR BAG. GENERAL MOTORS SHOULD ALSO FIX THIS FOR FREE UNDER A RECALL AS OTHERS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE. MY THIRD MAJOR COMPLAINT, IS THE VEHICLE STARTING PROBLEM/HARD START. IT TAKES TWO TURNS OF THE ENGINE FOR THE VEHICLE TO TURN ON AND STAY RUNNING. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ON VARIOUS SEARCH ENGINES, FORUMS, AND INCLUDING RECALL.GOV. GENERAL MOTORS SHOULD ADDRESS THIS ISSUES AS WELL UNDER A RECALL. GM INSTALLED FAULTY FUEL PUMPS OR FUEL PUMPS WITH FAULTY COMPONENTS IN THEM. A VEHICLE SHOULD START WITH ONE TRY. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO GET THE FUEL PRESSURE GOING IN THE ON POSITION, OR CRANK IT TWICE FOR MY TRUCK TO START.

MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED WITH A DEFECTIVE FUEL PUMP. I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL GAUGE AND DELAYED STARTS. I CHANGED THE PUMP AND NOTICED THE ORIGINAL PUMP WAS MISSING A SPRING ON ONE OF THE PUSH RODS. THE WEAR AND TEAR MADE THE PUMP HANG. I HAVE THE PUMP AND PHOTOS TO DELIVER. THIS PUMP IS A FLEX FUEL PUMP.…

MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED WITH A DEFECTIVE FUEL PUMP. I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL GAUGE AND DELAYED STARTS. I CHANGED THE PUMP AND NOTICED THE ORIGINAL PUMP WAS MISSING A SPRING ON ONE OF THE PUSH RODS. THE WEAR AND TEAR MADE THE PUMP HANG. I HAVE THE PUMP AND PHOTOS TO DELIVER. THIS PUMP IS A FLEX FUEL PUMP. THERE ARE SO MANY POSTS ON THIS DELAYED START ISSUE. I HAVE RECENTLY POSTED THE CAUSE OF MY ISSUE. I NOTICED THE DEFECT IMMEDIATELY BECAUSE I PERFORMED THE REPAIR AND NOT THE DEALER. THEY WERE QUICK TO OFFER ME A QUOTE FOR OVER A THOUSAND DOLLARS TO REPLACE A DEFECTIVE PART. *TR
