Emergencies (Disabled Vehicle) - Chevrolet Low Cab Forward 6.7L 2022 Owner's Manual

Emergencies (Disabled Vehicle)

When the Vehicle Breaks Down
When the Engine is Shut Down While Driving
If the engine cannot be started, promptly
have the vehicle inspected and repaired.
If the engine is shut down because the
vehicle ran out of fuel while driving,
refueling alone will not be enough to restart
the engine. Bleed the fuel system after
refueling the vehicle.
Caution
If the engine shuts down while driving,
immediately find a safe place to stop
with the following in mind:
The power steering system will stop
working but the vehicle can still be
steered. However, greater effort will
be required to turn the steering
wheel, especially in sharp turns and at
low speeds.
When the Fuel Tank is Empty
See Running Out of Fuel 0 183.
When the Engine Stalls and Cannot Be
Restarted
Move the selector lever to the "N" position
and push the vehicle to a safe place.
Warning
Vehicle operations will change, so stop
the vehicle in a safe place with the
following in mind.
The power steering system will not work
so the steering wheel will be hard to
turn. It will require more strength than
during normal operation.
If the power assist steering system goes
out because the engine has been shut
down or the assist system has
malfunctioned, the vehicle can still be
steered. However, much greater effort is
needed, especially in sharp turns or at
low speeds.
You and others could be seriously injured.
When the Vehicle Breaks Down During
Driving
1. Use the hazard warning flasher any time
to warn other drivers, day or night, and
pull the vehicle immediately over to a
Driving and Operating
safe place that does not impede traffic
(shoulder). Place triangle reflectors to
alert other traffic to the presence of your
vehicle.
2. If the vehicle can be exited safely, have
the other passengers get out and wait in
a safe place.
3. If the vehicle can be exited safely, walk
to a safe place and take appropriate
measures by using the closest
telephone, etc.
See Hazard Warning Flashers 0 68.
If There is a Fuel Leak
Danger
Leaking fuel from the vehicle is
dangerous due to possible combustion or
explosion. Shut down the engine
immediately.
You and others could be seriously injured
or killed.
