Consumer Description
BOUGHT USED, MILEAGE INDICATED ABOVE. THE FUEL GAUGE WAS SHOWING AN APPROXIMATE PROPER AMOUNT AT 1/4 TANK. ON FIRST FUEL UP, FULL, THE FUEL GAUGE WENT TO SHOW "EMPTY". IT STAYED LIKE THIS FOR AN APPROX. 1/4 TANK, THEN WENT TO THE ACTUAL FUEL AMOUNT. THIS OCCURRED FOR ABOUT THE NEXT 5 FILL UPS, THEN THE FUEL GAUGE WOULD NOT WORK AT ALL....ALWAYS SHOWING EMPTY. THIS HAS CAUSED ME RUNNING OUT OF FUEL TWICE, LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO STOP VEHICLE SAFELY, BOTH TIMES I WAS IN MODERATE TO HEAVY TRAFFIC. I HAVE FOUND NO RECALLS, BUT MANY COMPLAINTS! WHAT'S UP WITH THIS! I HAVE LOST TRUST IN CHEVY FOR NOT FIXING AN OBVIOUS FACTORY PROBLEM! *TR
