GM will pay up to $12,700 to some Silverado and Sierra owners: Here’s who is eligible
Owners of some Chevrolet and GMC trucks could be eligible for payments of up to $12,500 as part of a $35 million settlement related to defective fuel injector pumps.
The settlement covers 2011- 2016 Chevrolet Silverado or GMC Sierras equipped with a 6.6L Duramax diesel engine and Bosch CP4 high-pressure diesel fuel pumps bought from a GM-authorized dealer in California, Florida, Illinois, Iowa, New York, Pennsylvania or Texas from March 1, 2010 through Sept. 13, 2024.
There are different types of payments based on an owner’s situation. According to the settlement website, owners who paid out of pocket for repairs on the CP4 fuel pumps are eligible for cash payments as are those who no longer own their trucks or did not pay for a fuel pump repair. There is also money available for future repairs.
