In light of the recalls for other Silverado Fuel Pumps, I believe an investigation should be initiated for vehicles like mine that are part of the same manufacturer but were not part of the original recall. Right when this recall was announced my Silverado which is in excellent condition and has only 73,000 miles on it has a failing fuel pump, communicated by a check engine light and coded for the fuel pump failure. According to my dealer the cost to replace is almost 2,000 dollars. A fuel pump in a heavy duty truck should not fail after only 73000 miles.

I was driving on along WT Harris highway and I attempted a turn along JW Clay Blvd. when my I pressed the gas and my truck didn't respond. I lost acceleration and it took a dangerous amount of time for me to cross the Highway. There aren't any warning lights or a check engine light on, but my transmission has begun to slip gears. This is after I had over 2k work done at the dealership for other problems I was having. Since no warning lights were visible it came as a complete shock in the middle of traffic when I could not accelerate. I have had my truck inspected by AAMCO Total Car Care and they have confirmed the problems and also the lack of warning lights or codes. After some research online I have found this issue common with Chevrolet Silverados manufactured between 2015-19.

Fuel injectors are misfiring. This has caused the shifting of gears to be rough. Also, when at a complete stop, then a small amount of force is applied to the gas pedal, a sudden jump forward will take place. Check engine light and the traction control lights have came on.

Silverado 1500

  • 30,000 miles
Code P0300 and P050D keep on being thrown. Vehicle started having these issues back when I had 30K miles and now at 45K, I am getting them more often. The downshifts because of this are bad, the vehicle jerks when it downshifts. Feels like someone is rear-ending you. Vehicle sometimes shakes and sounds like its misfiring. I can sometimes turn off the vehicle and turn back on and it will work fine like nothing is wrong. Chevy wants $150 to diagnose and about $12000 to replace injectors since they are not covered under their bumper to bumper or powertrain warranty. That's pretty bad that I would have to do a major repair on a vehicle that is not that old and has to come out of my pocket.

Truck went into reduced engine power with check engine light and traction control light illuminated on the instrument cluster. Subsequent restarts of the truck resulted in the code clearing itself and normal start up. Now it is having trouble starting up on a cold start, especially with remote start.
