THE 2014 CHEVY SILVERADO 3500HD DURAMAX DIESEL COMES EQUIPP ED WITH THE BOSCH CP4 INJECTION FUEL PUMP. THIS PUMP IS PRONE TO FAILURE AT ANYTIME MILEAGE WISE. THE PUMP WAS USED IN EUROPEAN DIESEL ENGINES WITH SUCCESS SINCE THEIR FUEL HAS A HIGHER CONTENT OF LUBRICITY. DUE TO THE ULTRA-LOW SULFUR FUEL MANDATED FOR US DIESEL ENGINES THIS PUMP HAS A HISTORY OF CATASTROPHIC RESULTS WHEN USED IN THE 2011-2016 DURAMAX 6.6L CHEVY ENGINES.METAL TO METAL WEAR CAUSES SMALL METAL FRAGMENTS TO ENTER THE FUEL SYSTEM THEREBY CAUSING ENGINE FAILURE. THIS EVENT CAN HAPPEN WITHOUT WARNING. IF THE ENGINE HAS STOPPED WHILE IN MOTION THIS PRESENTS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. MY CONCERN IS THAT I TOW A 14000LB RV 5TH WHEEL TRAILER WITH MY TRUCK. HOW CAN IT BE STOPPED SAFELY WITH OUT THE ENGINE PROVIDING POWER TO THE BRAKING SYSTEM?. THIS ENGINE IS VERY POPULAR AMONG RV'ERS, BOATERS, FLATBED HAULERS ETC; BASICALLY ANYONE MOVING A HEAVY LOAD DOWN THE HIGHWAY.IF THIS INCIDENT HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS OUT

THE FUEL TRANSFER PUMP, WHICH MOVES FUEL FROM THE REAR TANK TO THE FRONT TANK HAS MALFUNCTIONED. THIS HAS CAUSED THE FUEL GAUGE TO READ INACCURATELY, CAUSING ENGINE TO STOP RUNNING, HAS ILLUMINATED THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT MULTIPLE TIMES, DISPLAYING CODE P2068 AND P0463. VEHICLE CAN RUN OUT OF FUEL UNEXPECTEDLY, DUE TO GAUGE SHOWING MORE FUEL THAN IS AVAILABLE. THIS HAS CAUSED THE ENGINE TO STALL UNEXPECTEDLY. THIS PROBLEM IS EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED IN RECALL DOCUMENT 13421 FROM GM, HOWEVER, THE VIN NUMBER OF MY VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I HAD AN INDEPENDENT AUTO REPAIR SHOP VERIFY THE CAUSE OF THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CODES, AND THEIR FINDINGS ARE CONSISTENT WITH MINE. THE VEHICLE HAS 98,000 MILE. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER. I HAVE SPOKE WITH GM CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT, WHO IS LOOKING IN TO THIS, HOWEVER HAS NOT YET RESPONDED TO MY COMPLAINT. I AM AWAITING THEIR RESPONSE IN THE NEXT 24 HRS. THANK YOU.

WHEN TURNING THE POWER STEERING WILL SOMETIMES FAIL FOR A SECOND OR MORE,

Mileage: 3

STEERING GETS VERY HARD TO TURN (LIKE WHEN THE ENGINE IF OFF) WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND HAS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS OVER THE PAST YEAR OR MORE. WHEN IT'S HAPPENED IT'S BEEN DIFFICULT TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE AND THE DEALERSHIP I TAKE IT TO DOESN'T THINK IT'S SOMETHING CHEVROLET IS GOING TO RESOLVE UNDER WARRANTY SINCE THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO REPEAT THE PROBLEM THEMSELVES AT THEIR SHOP. I WORRY THAT IT WILL COME UP AT AN INOPPORTUNE TIME CAUSING A POSSIBLE ACCIDENT.
