TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHEVROLET UPLANDER. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE FUEL GAUGE STOPPED WORKING AND DISPLAYED "EMPTY" EVEN WHEN THE TANK WAS FILLED WITH FUEL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 129,000.

REMEMBER TO KEEP YOUR UPLANDER'S GAS TANKS AT LEAST HALF FULL! UPLANDER FUEL GAUGE SHOWS GAS TANK IS A QUARTER FULL, HOWEVER, VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY RUNS OUT OF GAS WHENEVER ON A DOWNHILL SLOPE.

THE GAS GAUGE THEN SHOWED THAT I HAD A LITTLE MORE THAN A QUARTER OF A TANK AND I WAS ABLE TO START THE ENGINE AND DRIVE THE VEHICLE. TOOK IT TO RANCHO VALLEY CHEVROLET, PHILLIPS RANCH, CA, AND REPLACED THE 2006 INSTRUMENT PANEL WITH A RE-BUILT INSTRUMENT PANEL.

I HAVE CHANGED MY BULBS MORE THAN TWENTY TIMES. I GOT WARNINGS. SECONDLY, MY REMOTE CONTROL HAVE BEEN ACTING OUT. I CHANGED THE BATTERY SEVERAL TIMES. IT WILL WORK FOR ONLY FEW HOURS AND STOP. I STARTED LOCKING MY DOORS MANUALLY,ONLY THE PASSENGER DOOR IS LEFT TO CONTROL THE BUTTON. THE WORST EXPERIENCE THAT LED ME TO FILE THIS REPORT IS THE FUEL TANK AND THE STEERING WHEEL. MY VAN HAD STOPPED MORE THAN TWENTY TIMES WITHOUT WARNING,EACH TIME I BOUGHT GAS AND IT WILL START WORKING. THE LAST EXPERIENCE IS STILL FRIGHTENING TO ME. I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT 55M/HR MY GAUGE WAS SHOWING JUST BELOW HALF TANK,ALL OF A...
