NHTSA Complaint #10625895 — 2007 CHEVROLET MALIBU

WHENEVER I FILL UP MY GAS TANK THE GAS GAUGE WILL REGISTER IT AS FULL WHEN I START IT UP. BUT AFTER GOING 10 FEET THE CAR WILL CHIME AND THE FUEL GAUGE WILL GO FROM FULL TO EMPTY AND THE LIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE AND I WILL GET A MESSAGE THAT SAYS LOW FUEL. WHEN I TURN MY CAR ON THE NEXT TIME THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE AFTER DRIVING 30 MILES OR SO THE FUEL GAUGE WILL GO FROM EMPTY TO FULL A FEW TIMES AND THEN IT WILL READ CORRECTLY BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT WILL STAY ON FOR A FEW MORE ENGINE ON AND OFF CYCLES AND THEN TURN OFF. WHEN IT GETS TO ABOUT 1/4 TANK IT WILL START ACTING UP AGAIN AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME BACK ON. THE CRUISE CONTROL IS FAIRLY AGGRESSIVE WHEN IT IS GOING BACK TO THE SPEED IT IS SET AT AND THE CAR JERKS WHEN I REACTIVATE IT. I CALLED THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP TO ORDER THE PARTS FOR THE RECALL BRAKE LIGHTS MAY OR MAY NOT ILLUMINATE THE PERSON TOLD ME THAT SHE COULDN'T SEE ANYTHING ABOUT THE RECALL AND GAVE ME THE EXCUSE THAT IT WAS FAIRLY NEW AND I MIGHT NOT BE IN THE SYSTEM YET BUT I WAS SITTING IN FRONT OF MY COMPUTER LOOKING AT IT WITH MY OWN EYES. WILL CALL ASAP AND ASK ABOUT IT AGAIN. *TR
