My GMC truck has had many problems with the fuel and emissions system but now the truck hesitates and stalls on a regular basis. The truck will stall while driving it causing a very unsafe atmosphere. While accelerating the truck will sometimes hesitate which slows down acceleration. Many other Chevy/GMC S-10 owners have told me about the same problems.

I think there should be a recall on all 2001 GMC Sonomas. Everyone I talk to have had to have there breaks replaced within 5000 miles. I just put breaks on my truck in September. They need the rotors turned again and I need breaks I have talked to the dealership and they will not do anything about them maybe you can

When fuel tank has 1/4 tank remaining of fuel the gage will read as empty or below empty. Have checked twice with the dealer and they claim that there is no known remedy from the manufacturer.
