Consumer Description
INITIALLY THE FUEL GAUGE BEGAN FLUCTUATING AND WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. THEN, IT STOPPED WORKING ALL TOGETHER. IT ALWAYS SAYS THE VEHICLE IS ON EMPTY WITH THE GAS LIGHT AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYING ON 90% OF THE TIME. THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING BECAUSE IF THERE WERE A PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE, I WOULD HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING WHETHER THE LIGHT IS ON DUE TO THE FUEL SENSOR OR BECAUSE OF ANOTHER MORE SERIOUS ISSUE. I ALSO MUST RELY ON THE "TRIP METER" TO DETERMINE MY FUEL LEVEL. I HAVE FOUND THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES AND WOULD HOPE CHEVY WOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. *TR
