Consumer Description

"GMC ENVOY FUEL SENSOR MAY FAIL PREMATURELY". I GOT THIS INFORMATION FROM GM IN A LETTER. THEY WILL PAY 1/2 COST TO HAVE IT REPLACED IF THE VEHICLE IS LESS THAN 10 YEARS OLD AND HAS =<120K MILES. MY VEHICLE HAS 148K AND IS A 2005 MODEL. GM TELLS ME THEY WILL NOT HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM DUE TO THE HIGHER MILES. I CONSIDER THE FACT THAT THE FUEL SENSOR MAY READ EMPTY EVEN WHEN FULL OR FULL WHEN IN FACT THE TANK IS EMPTY TO BE A SAFETY HAZARD. I AM ASKING FOR YOUR HELP TO HAVE GM RECALL THE AFFECTED MODELS AND REPAIR AT NO COST TO ME OR THE THOUSANDS OF OTHERS WHO IN FACT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE NEVER FILED A COMPLAINT BEFORE AND HOPE THAT I HAVE PROVIDED ENOUGH INFORMATION FOR THE BOARD TO TAKE POSITIVE ACTION. *KB
