Consumer Description

FUEL GAUGE WARNING LIGHT DID NOT COME ON AND FUEL GAUGE REMAINED ON EMPTY EVEN AFTER FILLING THE GAS TANK UP. I NOW HAVE TO GUESS AS TO MY FUEL AMOUNT AND FILL UP EVERY 300 MILES TO BE SAFE SO AS TO NOT RUN OUT OF GAS WITH MY 6 MONTH OLD SON IN THE CAR. THE COST ESTIMATE FOR REPLACING THIS COMPONENT IS OVER $800 WHICH I DO NOT HAVE. I BELIEVE THAT WITH SO FEW MILES AND SUCH A COMMON COMPLAINT, GM SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL SO NO ONE RUNS OUT OF GAS ON THE INTERSTATE AND GETS REAR ENDED. *TR
