Silverado 2500

  • 1,000 miles
Mon Oct 8th, 5pm, my Chevy Silverado 2500hd diesel truck caught fire driving down a city road(approximately 30mph), with me, my 12yo daughter and her friend in it. The engine died, and I lost power steering and brakes. After wrestling the truck to the side fo the road, a passerby drove backwards in traffic to alert me that the truck was burning. If not for him, we might not have gotten out in time. Flaming fuel was dripping down from in the chassis, driver side, in front of rear wheel, approximately where the fueling receptacle was. The pool of burning fuel on the ground could not be extinguished. A passerby emptied a 15lb fire extinguisher onto the area, and was not able to stop the flaming leaking fuel. By now, it was leaking with the intensity of a small shower head. The entire truck burned to the ground rapidly. The truck was two weeks old, with less than 1000 miles. It was unmodified. GM, Chevrolet, and weseloh Chevrolet were utterly unconcerned, and unmoved by this disaster. They treated the incident as if I had wrongly complained that the floor mats didn't fit correctly.
