NHTSA Complaint #10263261 — 2005 GMC ENVOY XUV

FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS WHEN I TURN ON MY TRUCK THE AIRBAG LIGHT TURNS ON AND STAYS ON FOR A FEW HOURS STATING THAT IT NEEDS SERVICE. IT HAPPENS EVERY FEW WEEKS AND IT CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS. IF I WERE TO BE INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT THE AIR BAGS MAY OR MAY NOT DEPLOY. I HAD TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE TRUCK TO TAKE A LOOK AT IT AND THEY SAID IT WAS OK, THAT I MUST OF PASSED A BUMP TOO FAST CAUSING IT TO TURN ON, BUT IT HAS BEEN QUITE A WHILE AND IT CONTINUES TO DO THE SAME THING. I GUARANTEE NO BUMP WOULD CAUSE A AIR BAG LIGHT TO TURN ON AND MALFUNCTION. AS IF THAT WAS NOT ENOUGH OF A PROBLEM IN THE BEGINNING OF THIS MONTH (MARCH) I STARTED HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE GAS GAUGE. AT FIRST WHEN I WOULD FILL IT UP IT WOULD READ EMPTY AND WOULD REGISTER ABOUT 30 MINUTES LATER TO THE CORRECT LEVEL. NOW IT DOESN'T REGISTER AT ALL, IT JUST MOVES FROM SIDE TO SIDE, STATES EMPTY WHEN I FILL UP AND EVERYMORNING WHEN I TURN THE TRUCK ON AND SAYS I HAVE A QUARTER TANK THERE AFTER. WHAT SAD IS THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THIS PROBLEM AND IT HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED. THIS CAN BE A SAFETY HAZARD AND CAUSES DISTRACTIONS WHEN DRIVING. *TR
