Consumer Description

2003 M45 CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON FOR GAS GAUGE, ALWAYS FULL. THE DIAGNOSTIC SAYS ITS THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR. REPLACED THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR (ABOUT $400) BECAUSE THE VEHICLE HAD FAILED THE STATE EMISSIONS INSP. THE CHECK ENGINE IS STILL ON AND NOW I HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. ALL-IN-ALL THIS IS TURNING OUT TO BE A PRETTY SERIOUS (EXPENSIVE) PROBLEM. MY CAR WON'T PASS INSPECTION AND MY REGISTRATION IS OUT. I'VE RUN OUT OF GAS SEVERAL TIMES ALREADY, SINCE NOTHING IS TELLING ME HOW MUCH GAS I HAVE. THE CAR SHUTS DOWN COMPLETELY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. ON ONE OCCASION HAD TO WAIT ON THE SIDE OF A VERY BUSY INTERSTATE FOR AN HOUR TO GET GAS FROM A TOW TRUCK DISPATCHED BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY. *TR
