EXHAUST SYSTEM CRACKED DOWNPIPE CAUSING FUMES TO ENTER THE CAB. *TR
FIRST TIME I GOT HEADACHE AND DIZZY IN 5/28/2010 DOCTOR PUT ME IN HOSPITAL OVER NIGHT AND FOUND NOTHING DID NOT KNOW IT WAS CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING AND TO TEST BLOOD. HAD EXHAUST LEAK FIXED BY DEALER SHIP ON 7/02/2010 COWORKER SAID HE COULD SMELL EXHAUST IN CAB THAT'S WHY I TOOK IT IN I COULD NOT SMELL IT. I HAVE HAD A LOT OF TROUBLE WITH EXHAUST SYSTEM FILTER LIGHT COMING ON WITH ENGINE POWER REDUCED. TAKING BACK TO DEALER SHIP. THEY SAID IT NEEDS TO BE PUT IN REGEN MODE MANUALLY, ON 12/17 2012 IS STARTED TO PASS OUT ON ROAD DOING 35MPH STARTED TO LOOSE VISION, HEADACHE, DIZZY FELT LIKE MY HEART POUNDING IN MY CHEST AND THAT'S NOT ALL MORE TO LIST. BUT STARTED GO TO DOCTORS ON MY SYMPTOM'S FOR OVER A MONTH TAKING SICK TOME AND VACATION TIME. WHEN I REALIZED EVERY TIME I GOT IN MY WORK TRUCK IT ALL STARTED OVER AGAIN. SO TOOK BACK TO DEALER FOR EXHAUST LEAK AND THEY SAID WAS LEAKING AT TURBO AND DOWN PIPE. SAID THEY FIXED IT BY TIGHTENING CLAMP. GOT DOWN THE HWY 15 MILES AND STARTED HAPPENING AGAIN. I ROLLED THE WINDOWS DOWN AND DROVE HOME BLOOD PRESSURE 170/110 THAT'S ANOTHER THING IT DOES. MY BOSS TOOK IT IN TO A DIESEL TRUCK SPECIALIST AND THEY SAID THE DOWN PIPE IS CRACKED AND LEAKING AND ADVISED TO FIX OR DRIVE IT WITH THE WINDOWS DONE. THEY STARTED TO SEND IN ALL OUR LOCAL TRUCKS TO GET TESTED AND WE FOUND 5 TRUCKS LEAKING. I'M SURE THERE ARE A LOT MORE OUT THERE. WE HAD ANOTHER GUY CRASH HIS TRUCK FROM PASSING OUT AT THE WHEEL BEFORE I FOUND THE DEFECT IN THE TRUCK. NOW THE COMPANY KNOWS WHY HE CRASHED. THIS ISSUE IS IN 2007 AND 2008 MODELS DIESELS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2500 DIESEL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT CARBON MONOXIDE FUMES WERE EMITTED INTO THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE VENTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE WHO DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 29,000.

ON HIGHWAY TRYING TO ACCELERATE, I GOT A REDUCED POWER MESSAGE AND LIGHT ON DASH... WHICH ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID BRING IT IN. THEY REPLACED THE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR. I HAVE NOT GOT THE MESSAGE ANYMORE BUT THE TRUCK DOES NOT ACCELERATE LIKE IT USE TO. 2500HD DURAMAX ... I AM AFRAID IF THE ISSUE HAPPENS AGAIN ALL COSTS WILL BE OUT OF POCKET FOR ME. I JUST WENT OVER 38K MILES. *TR

DURING THE WINTER HERE IN NORTHERN OHIO I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING A REDUCED POWER MODE IN MY CHEVY DIESEL POWERED TRUCK. IT HAS HAPPENED REPEATEDLY,ALMOST DAILY, AND ON FRIDAY, MAR 20TH, WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY THE TRUCK UNEXPECTEDLY WENT INTO THIS REDUCED POWER MODE TWICE AND DROPPED FROM 65 MPH TO LESS THAN 40 MPH, ALMOST CAUSING A CRASH BECAUSE OF THE SUDDEN DECELERATION IN ONE INSTANCE. I HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE NOW OVER THIS ISSUE, IN BOTH CASES THEY SAID IT WAS MY AFTERMARKET AIR INTAKE PRODUCT AND IT'S SUPPOSED FOULING OF A KEY ENGINE SENSOR, THE MAF SENSOR. THEY BLAMED OIL FROM THE AIR FILTER FOULING THE SENSOR, AND YET THE AIR FILTER WAS THERE AND THERE WAS NO SIGN OF OIL SEEPAGE OR FOULING OF THE SENSOR. SINCE THEN I HAVE, AT MY EXPENSE, REPLACED THE AIR INTAKE SYSTEM BACK TO FACTORY AND THE MAF SENSOR, AND ALL THAT WAS BEFORE FRIDAY WHEN I ALMOST GOT HIT BY A SEMITRUCK. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE INTERNET, CONSULTED WITH TWO AFTERMARKET AIR INTAKE MANUFACTURERS AND HAVE DETERMINED THAT THIS ISSUE IS NOT WHAT HAS BEEN BLAMED TO DATE BUT SOMETHING ELSE FAULTY ON MY TRUCK. EITHER IN THE WIRING HARNESS AFFECTING SENSOR OUTPUT OR A DIFFERENT SENSOR THAT WORKS IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE ONE SENSOR THAT THE DTC SAYS IS AT FAULT. THERE HAS BEEN ISSUED TSB'S ON THIS ENGINE FAMILY RELATING TO MY ISSUE, GMC IS AWARE THAT THERE EXISTS AN ISSUE, AND YET I HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR REPAIRS AND PARTS AND LABOR FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN RESOLVED THE FIRST TIME UNDER WARRANTY. THE DTC IS P0102, MAF SENSOR LOW INPUT, THE SENSOR I REPLACED LOOKS IDENTICAL TO THE ONE I PUT IN, NO SIGNS OF FOULING. I EVEN AT ONE POINT PURCHASED A MAF SENSOR CLEANER MADE BY CRC, USED IT ACCORDING TO DIRECTIONS AND STILL GOT THE DTC, THE REDUCED POWER MODE AND A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THE TRUCK WILL RESUME NORMAL OPERATING AFTER 15 TO 20 MINUTES, BUT THEN WILL FAULT OUT AGAIN SOON AFTER OR ON THE NEXT RESTART. NO ISSUE LAST WINTER, EVEN W/ THE AFTERMARKET AIR SYSTEM. *TR
