Consumer Description

THE FUEL SENSOR STOPPED WORKING. CAN NOT TELL HOW MUCH GAS IS IN THE CAR. MY DAUGHTER RAN OUT OF GAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY ON HER WAY HOME FROM COLLEGE! THE CAR HAS NOW FAILED INSPECTION. I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS THE FUEL SENSOR. PAID TO HAVE THIS REPLACED AT FIRESTONE AUTO CARE. DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. WAS THEN TOLD THAT THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP WOULD HAVE TO FIX IT BECAUSE IT MUST HAVE TO DO WITH THE COMPUTER SYSTEM. THIS CAR HAS MULTIPLE RECALLS AND EVEN THE ENGINE ITSELF BLEW UP. I CAN NOT KEEP LIGHTS ON IT BECAUSE EVERY TIME THE BULBS ARE REPLACED THEY BLOW. I EVEN ORDERED WHOLE OTHER TAIL LIGHT PACKAGE THINKING THAT WOULD HELP BUT IT DID NOT. THIS CAR IS NOTHING BUT A SAFETY HAZARD!!!!! *TR
