ENGINE EXHIBITED SYMPTOMS OF STARTING HARD WHEN HOT OR STALLING WITH NO WARNING. THE SES LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND THE CODES 17, 18, 35 & 36 WERE STORED. DEALER WAS CONTACTED REGARDING THIS AND TRUCK WAS AT DEALER FOR 3 APPOINTMENTS BUT DID NOT RESOLVE PROBLEM. THESE CODES ALMOST ALWAYS INDICATE A FAILING FUEL INJECTION PUMP AND CALLS TO CUSTOMER RELATIONS LINE ASKING WHY NOTHING WAS BEING DONE TO CHANGE THE FUEL INJECTION PUMP DIDN'T GET ANYWHERE. A CASE NUMBER WAS ASSIGNED. ALL VISITS TO THE DEALER WERE DURING THE WARRANTY PERIOD. A TRIP FOLLOWING THE LAST VISIT TO THE DEALERSHIP NEARLY RESULTED IN A REAR END COLLISION ON AND INTERSTATE AS THE TRUCK STALLED IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. I PURCHASED A NEW GM FUEL INJECTION PUMP AND INSTALLED IT MYSELF AND RESOLVED THE PROBLEM COMPLETELY. GM HAS SINCE REINSTATED THE WARRANTY FOR THIS PROBLEM ON SEVERAL TRUCKS INCLUDING MINE. I AM SUBMITTING A REQUEST FOR A REFUND FOR MY LOSSES.*AK
