NHTSA Complaint #726085 — 1997 CADILLAC DEVILLE

THE LAST THREE YEARS, THE GAS GUAGE IN THE VEH. REGISTERS APPROXIMATELY 4 GAL, A WHILE LATTER ITS BACK UP TO FULL, AND GOES UP AND DOWN, YOU GET ABOUT 10 GALLONS OF GAS THE GUAGE SHOWS FULL, AND THEN YOU DRIVE A WHILE THE GUAGE GOES DOWN TO 8 GAL. THIS IS CONSTANT. WE HAVE REPORTED THIS PROBLEM TO A CADILLAC DEALLER HERE IN NC AND THEY KEEPS TELLING US THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE GAS TANK. I HAVE TAKEN THIS CAR FOR THIS PROBLEM THREE TIME AND THEY KEEP TELLING ME THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. MY WIFE CONTACTED MASSEY CADILLAC WHERE WE LEASED IT FROM, AND THEY INFORMED US THAT, ALL 1997 CADILLAC DEVILLE GAS TANKS WERE RECALLED FOR THAT KIND OF PROBLEM. I TOLD THIS TO THE CADILLAC DEALER HERE IN NC AND THEY INFORME US IT IS NOT SO. IT IS A PROBLEM, WE HAVE TO STOP AND FUEL THIS VEH, MANY TIME ON A TRIP BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH GAS THERE IS IN THE TANK. I WOULD LIKE YOUR ASSISTANCE ON THIS MATTER, IT IS DRIVING US NUTS. NO ONE WANT TO DO A THING ABOUT IT. I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE IN THIS MATTER JOHN. *AK
