The fuel control module on the 2009 gmc tahoe has malfunctioned four times since we purchased the taho, it has failed as we are driving down the highway compromising our safety, it fails without warning, gm is aware of this issue and has only recalled the early manufactured vehicles, 27000 to be exact, have tried to tell gm about this problem and they refuse to acknowledge it as a safety issue. the last time it failed was driving down the highway about 65-70 miles an hour with children in the back seat, and the fuel system just shut down...this is a problem with the manufactured part that is supposed to be waterproof, but the seal fails and shorts out the fuel system. this is the recall on the early part of the year vehicles: gm is recalling 27,188 my 2009 cadillac escalade, escalade hybrid, escalade esv, and escalade ext; chevrolet avalanche, suburban, tahoe, tahoe hybrid, and colorado; and gmc yukon, yukon hybrid, yukon xl, and canyon vehicles. the fuel system control modules may have a condition in which an adhesive separation of the room temperature vulcanizing (rtv) seal between the seal and the housing may allow water to seep into the module.

Tl* the contact owns a 2009 chevrolet tahoe. the contact stated that upon placing the key in the ignition, the vehicle cranked but failed to start. the check engine light illuminated. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the fuel control module failed and needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the dealer was not contacted. the manufacturer was notified of the failure but did not offer any further assistance. the contact referenced tsb14515a. the approximate failure mileage was 134,000.
Dashboard has cracked near the passenger side airbag and driver side near the defrost vent- no accident. simply sitting in the driveway of our home. the check engine light came on and when it was hooked up to the diagnostic computer system it stated it was bc of the fuel system control module which is already under recall.
Electrical issues dash and all electric would go hey wire engine performance would be erratic a very safety problem while driving
While driving my vehicles traction control is coming on for no reason. the dealership said it is a false reading causing the traction control to come on when it shouldn't. they said the sensors would need replaced and all the previous models have had this recalled but not out current year yet. the dealership said there are so many that have had this same problem but it has yet to be recalled on this current model. this is a death trap while driving but we don't have the $500 to fix it. this part should be recalled like the rest of the models. it is so scary and hard to control when it suddenly starts doing it!!! please help!! *tr
