I HAVE BEEN THE SOLE OWNER OF THIS WELL MAINTAINED VEHICLE SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED NEW. I NOTICED GASOLINE LEAKAGE FROM THE GAS TANK ONTO MY GARAGE FLOOR. WHEN REPAIRED BY A GMC DEALERSHIP, I WAS TOLD THAT THE GAS TANK HAD RUSTED THROUGH ON THE TOP SURFACE CAUSING THE LEAK AND REQUIRING REPLACEMENT OF THE GAS TANK. THIS PROBLEM PRESENTED A VERY SERIOUS RISK OF FIRE AND OTHER OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE MAY BE UNKNOWINGLY AT RISK.*AK

Emerging complaint spikes
Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
Equal-age model-year comparison
