Consumer Description

THE FUEL TANKED IS DEFORMED AND THE FUEL GAUGE REFLECTS ONE-QUARTER TO ONE-HALF OF A TANK OF FUEL WHEN IT IS ACTUALLY EMPTY. THE RECALL NOTICE INDICATED THE FUEL TANK COULD BE REPLACED IF DEFORMED. MY FUEL TANK IS DEFORMED AND I MENTIONED THAT TO THE SERVICE ADVISOR. HE DIDN'T SEEM INTERESTED IN MY CONCERN. NOT KNOWING HOW MUCH FUEL IS REMAINING IN THE TANK IS A REAL PROBLEM. THE TANK IS DEFORMED AND SHOULD BE REPLACED AS PER THE RECALL.
