Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THEN I NOTICED MY FUEL GAUGE WENT UP TO FULL THEN WENT DOWN TO EMPTY AND STAYED THERE. I DECIDED TO STOP AND GET GAS AND FILLED UP MY TANK, ONCE I STARTED THE CAR AGAIN THE FUEL GAUGE STILL READ EMPTY. AS I WAS DRIVING HOME THE GAUGE SLOWLY STARTED TO MOVE TO FULL BUT LATER WENT BACK TO EMPTY ONCE I ARRIVED HOME. THE PAST 2 WEEKS AFTER THE FIRST INCIDENT THE GAUGE HAS BEEN STAYING ON EMPTY EVEN WITH A FULL TANK. IM AFRAID OF RUNNING OUT OF FUEL WHILE DRIVING OUT IN THE COUNTRY OR ON THE HIGHWAY AND GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE A FAMILY AND FEAR FOR OUR SAFETY WHEN WE ARE OUT DRIVING AND NOT SURE HOW MUCH FUEL IS IN OUR VEHICLE. *KB
