Consumer Description

FUEL GAUGE HAS BEEN GROSSLY INACCURATE SINCE ABOUT THE FALL OF 2009. WE ARE NEVER SURE IF WE ARE GOING TO RUN OUT OF GAS AND BE STRANDED. MY WIFE IS AN REGISTERED NURSE WHO'S WORKED NIGHTS AND GETTING OFF AT 2:00 A.M. AND RUNNING OUT OF GAS ON THE FREEWAY COULD POTENTIALLY PUT HER LIFE IN DANGER, NOT TO MENTION HAVING TO LOOK FOR GAS IN CRIME RIDDLED NEIGHBORHOODS. THIS HAS HAPPENED ONCE ALREADY, WHERE THE GAUGE SHOWED 1/4 TANK BUT WAS IN FACT EMPTY, AND CAUSED A STALL. FORTUNATELY THIS WAS DURING THE DAYTIME ON A LIGHTLY TRAVELED RURAL ROAD ALTHOUGH WE ARE JUST WAITING FOR IT TO HAPPEN IN TRAFFIC ON THE FREEWAY. VERY DANGEROUS. 2006 BUICK RENDEZVOUS CXL AWD. *TT
