2005 Chevrolet Tahoe. Fuel pump eruption, due to the smell of coming from the vehicle. The consumer also noticed a leak from under the vehicle. The fuel pump and fuel line needed to be replaced. Also, the window switch was replaced and the key became stuck in the ignition.

I own a 2005 Chevy Tahoe I bought new. Last year in 2012 the fuel lines coming out of the fuel pump rotted out and I had to replace the whole pump. Early this year (2013) the transmission lines rotted out and all had to be replaced, in September this year (2013) the brake lines rotted out and had to be replaced. Lucky for me I was just leaving my driveway. I am very disappointed with this GM vehicle. I don't know if I would ever buy a GM vehicle again.

Fuel sending unit not functioning on 2005 Chevrolet Tahoe. Spoke with my mechanic who stated it was a very common problem with Chevrolet Tahoe. The sending unit made it so the gas did not register on the fuel gauge making it likely to run out of gas at an inopportune time, possibly creating a traffic hazard or crash.

The incident is the vehicle stalling on the interstate which could have lead to a accident if the vehicle behind me had not swirved at the last moment. The fuel guage registerd 3/4 tank of gas. Once stopped at the next exit I was able to put 25 gallons in the tank. I have since noticed that the guage will read sporatic readings but then settle back to around the 3/4 tank mark.

The oil gauge on my 2005 Chevrolet Tahoe was replaced on April 6, 2011. The needle was as far over on the right side of the gauge (looking at it) as it could go. It clearly was not reading the amount of oil pressure. The entire dash panel had to be replaced to correct this problem after it was determined there were no bad connections to the unit. The dash part was $350.

2005 Tahoe-due to faulty purge canister solenoid (evap) cannot put gas in vehicle due to the air has nowhere to escape while filling. Gas spurts back out of fuel neck causing potential safety and environmental hazard. GM has a new redesigned part but does not replace or repair at their cost. Consumer is getting charged and required pay for their acknowledged problems.

This complaint is for a 2005 mastercraft X-2 boat not a Chevy Tahoe. There is no option to choose boat manufacturers on this website. Chevy makes the indymar 350 on this boat and is the closest option representing this boat available. The events leading up to the failure are either running the gas tank down to 1/4 tank full or running the gas tank empty. The failure can occur upon the first instance of running the tank to 1/4 full as I have documented proof of a boat owner with 3 hours on his boat have a failure. To correct the failure boat owners have to pay $500 for the same poorly designed pumped which is subject to failure and stranding the boat owner once again in open water at unexpected times (often at the end of their boating day which is dangerous because it is usually dark or beginning to become dark). Unless of course it is within 2 years of purchasing a new boat in which case your still stranded but the dealer warranties the pump work installing another faulty fuel pump. Here is a forum where the issues can be discussed and specific reports reviewed. www.mastercraft.com/teamtalk/showthread.php?T=25783&highlight=fuel+pump to further explain the safety issues involved, atleast two documented owners on this forum have tried to fix this issue on their own coming up with their own solutions. This could be very dangerous and result in out of tank pumps/home style fixes to this plagued fuel system.

Every time I start my vehicle, my gas light goes on and indicates I am low on fuel when I have gas in it. After driving for awhile the needle will go up but it is not giving an accurate reading of how much gas is in the tank.

Fuel gauge is never accurate. Sometimes it takes 15 minutes after driving for fuel to register on gauge. They light usually stays on even when I have gas"?"

- Powder Springs, GA, USA

Fuel gauge is constantly inaccurate. The car has a 26 gallon tank, after filling up and driving sometimes 50 miles the gas light will come on telling me I am out of gas. I have sit on level surfaces watching the gauge go from full down to completely empty several times. This problem could potentially leave a person stranded as they do not know how much gas is in the vehicle.

While driving, the gas pedal stuck in the down position causing car to sped up. It then slowed down. Upon inspection by mechanic, it was found that a spring on the gas pedal had become dislodged. One end of the spring is straight (like an opened paper clip) the straight part had stuck into the carpet and then slowly eased out. The mechanic was able to recreate the situation. Because of this, my wife was issued a summons which is still pending. E-mails to General Motors have gone unanswered.
