Consumer Description

TWO MONTHS AGO AFTER FILLING UP MY 2006 ENVOY XL WITH GAS, A PREVIOUSLY NORMALLY FUNCTIONING FUEL GAUGE SUDDENLY READ EMPTY AND THE AUDIBLE WARNING KEPT SOUNDING THOUGH I KNEW IT HAD A FULL TANK. THE GAUGE WOULD START TO GO UP, BUT THEN WHEN I WOULD TURN THE VEHICLE OFF, IT WOULD READ EMPTY AGAIN. AS I WAS DRIVING, THE GAUGE WOULD FLUCTUATE BETWEEN EMPTY AND FULL NO MATTER HOW MUCH FUEL WAS IN THE TANK. A TRIP TO THE DEALER SHOWED THAT I HAD A FAULTY FUEL SENSOR. THEY SAID THAT IF I DROVE IT AROUND LIKE THAT THE VEHICLE COULD SUDDENLY STALL. I HAD TO HAVE THE FUEL SENSOR REPLACED AT MY OWN EXPENSE AS IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. *TR
