2000–2001 Chevrolet C/K Chassis CAB & 2000–2001 GMC C/K Chassis CAB recall: fuel system

⚠️ What's wrong

Vehicle description: Chassis cabs. On some of these vehicles, either or both of the two body pressure relief valves (prv) may not seal and could become inoperative during the life of the vehicle if the body installed on the vehicle does not protect the prv from road debris.

💥 The risk

If a prv does not seal, exhaust fumes could enter into the passenger CAB and could cause possible illness, unconsciousness, or death.

🔧 The fix

Dealers will inspect the vehicle to ensure that the prvs are protected by the body of the vehicle. If the prvs are not protected by the body, the dealer will install new shielded prvs.

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
