NHTSA Complaint #10315575 — 2006 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER

IN MY 2006 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER, THE GAS SENSOR DOES NOT WORK AND CAUSED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO COME ON INTERMITTENTLY AS WELL AS CAUSING THE FUEL GAUGE TO REMAIN ON EMPTY REGARDLESS OF THE ACTUAL FUEL LEVEL. I HAVE HAD THE CAR DIAGNOSED AND WAS INFORMED THAT IT WAS THE SENSOR IN THE GAS TANK AND THE REPAIR WOULD COST ME $500 TO REPLACE A PART THAT WOULD ULTIMATELY FAIL AGAIN. GM HAS REFUSED TO COVER PARTIAL EXPENSES OF THIS REPAIR EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE AWARE OF SAID PROBLEM. I FIRST NOTIFIED GM ON 6/23/2009 AND THEY HAVE YET TO ISSUE A RECALL. THERE IS CURRENTLY AN OPEN INVESTIGATION :ACTION NUMBER DP10001. *TR
