Consumer Description

MY FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT WORK AND HASN'T FOR QUITE SOME TIME. I PURCHASED THE CAR BRAND NEW. IT IS SEVERAL YEARS OLD NOW, BUT IT ONLY HAS 10,000 MILES. THIS PROBLEM PRESENTED MUCH SOONER THAN THIS MILEAGE. I AM TOLD IT IS THE RE-SENDING UNITS IN THE GAS TANKS. IRONIC PART AND FRUSTRATING POINT IS THAT I HAD ANOTHER CORVETTE, THE MODEL BEFORE THIS ONE -C5. IT HAD THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM! I'M POSITIVE THAT OTHER OWNERS ARE AFFECTED. I CANNOT GET THE WARRANTY TO COVER THE REPAIR AS IT EXPIRED DUE TO THE AGE OF THE VEHICLE. I'M WORRIED ABOUT THESE DEFECTIVE SENSORS CAUSING A FUEL FIRE OR OTHER SERIOUS PROBLEMS. REGARDLESS, THE SENSORS ARE A DEFECTIVE DESIGN.
