What owners wrote
Gage package (water temp, fuel, oil pressure, battery amps) occasionally give higher false readngs and sticks. Readings do not reset to zero as with normal starting of the truck. This is a safety hazard as it preoccupies and may overly concern the driver with a false condition of the vehicle.
Received a recall last october 2015 about strong gas small. Got appointment at chevy dealer to fix problem in november. Dealer says I need a gas tank,but they can't get any from company. They have other recalls also with the same problem that are waiting. Now vehicle has become hard to start. Still waiting for dealer to fix. Why does chevrolet send recalls if they have no intention of fixing the problem?? This is a dangerous situation with gas dripping, and the strong gas smell.
