Consumer Description

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE WITH A 3 MONTH/3000 MILE WARRANTY AND SINCE THE PURCHASE I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE GAS GAUGE. FOR SOME REASON THE GAUGE WILL INSTANTLY DROP TO EMPTY AND THEN BACK TO THE CORRECT LEVEL. I'VE HAD IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT IT 3 TIMES AND THEY CAN'T FIND A PROBLEM BECAUSE THE GAUGE IS READING NORMALLY. NOW THAT THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY I AM STUCK WITH THE BURDEN OF A FAULTY FUEL GAUGE AND AM WONDERING HOW TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM SEEING THAT THE DEALERSHIP COULDN'T REPAIR THE PROBLEM. I ALSO AM CONCERNED BECAUSE I THINK THIS PROBLEM SHOULD OF BEEN RESOLVED WHILE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY. I,M SURE AS SOON AS I OPEN MY WALLET AT THE DEALERSHIP THE PROBLEM WILL BE RESOLVED. I ALSO KNOW THAT PREVIOUS YEAR JEEPS HAD THIS PROBLEM. *AK
