ERRATIC FUEL GAUGE PROBLEM STARTED AT 110,000 MILES ON 2006 GMC ENVOY SLE AWD AND WAS NOTED ON A DEALERSHIP VISIT. UNFORTUNATELY NOW HAS 150,000 MILES WHEN THE . VEHICLE HAS RUN OUT OF FUEL ON FREEWAY WITH WIFE AND CHILDREN, AND ALMOST CAUSED SEVERAL ACCIDENTS. IT HAS REQUIRED NUMEROUS AAA CALLS FOR FUEL OVER THE PAST YEARS AND HAS CREATED A MANY HOURS OF INCONVENIENCE AND LOST OF WORK. ME AND MY WIFE HAVE BEEN STRANDED ON THE ROADSIDE OVER 15 TIMES DUE TO FAULTY FUEL READINGS. PROBLEM HAS BEEN TOO COSTLY TO REPAIR SO WE HAVE TO NOW RELY ON RESETTING THE TRIP ODOMETER. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN THAT SHOULD BE MORE THAN A SAFETY BULLETIN FOR ONLY VEHICLES UP TO 120,000 MILES. THIS IS A FARCE TO THE GMC AND CHEVY OWNER COMMUNITY. IS THE NHTSA WAITING FOR PEOPLE TO DIE BEFORE MAKING THIS A TOTAL RECALL TO PAY FOR REPAIRS FOR ALL OWNERS OF THESE PRODUCTS? THIS IS A FAILED DESIGN THAT MUST BE CORRECTED FOR PUBLIC SAFETY SAKE. PLEASE WORK WITH THE MANUFACTURERS TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE FAIRLY, EQUITABLE, AND HONESTLY. THANK YOU. AND MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON THOSE WITH THE POWER TO MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE TO DO THE RIGHT THING FOR THE CONSUMERS OF THESE PRODUCTS. THANK YOU AGAIN. *TR

2010 CHEVY TRAVERSE LT GAS GAUGE IS ALL OVER THE PLACE,WAS ON THE EMPTY MARK WITH ABOUT 1/8 TANK GAS LEFT BUT GAUGE READ FULL OR MY GAUGE TO NOT READ CORRECTLY; AFTER FILLING, THE GAUGE WOULD NOT MOVE THE OPPOSITE WOULD OCCUR ALSO; THE GAUGE WOULD SHOW THE TANK WITH MORE GAS THAN WHAT I ACTUALLY HAD. HEY REPLACED THE FLOAT AND STILL NOT WORKING IN FACT IT'S WORSE. *TR

FAULTY FUEL GAUGE SENSOR, AS WELL AS A FAULTY INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE FUEL GAUGE INDICATES THERE IS NO FUEL WHEN I HAVE JUST FILLED UP MY 2006 GMC ENVOY. STARTED WITH FILLING UP MY SUV AND AFTER I GOT GAS, THE GAUGE DROPPED TO EMPTY WITH THE BELL CHIMING LOW FUEL. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON CONSTANTLY EVEN AFTER HAVING THE CAR SERVICED. IT GOES OFF INTERMITTENTLY. DEFINITELY DANGEROUS AS YOU DO NOT KNOW WHEN YOU WILL RUN OUT OF GAS, ESPECIALLY WITH TRAVELING WITH YOUNG CHILDREN. *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME AND LOST POWER TO THE STEERING WHEEL AND I WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL LEFT OR RIGHT. VERY STIFF AND PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I CALLED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO COME GET ME, AFTER WAITING 20 MINUTES, I TURNED IT BACK ON AND THE WHEEL WAS FREE TO MOVE AGAIN. THIS OCCURED A SECOND TIME LAST WEEK WHEN I STARTED MY CAR IN THE MORNING. I TURNED IT OFF AND ON SEVERAL TIMES AND FINALLY IT WORKED. THE CAR IS VERY UNSAFE AND I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE IT AS IT MAY HAPPEN AGAIN GOING A FASTER SPEED. CURRENTLY THE CAR IS NOW AT THE SHOP LOOKING AT THE POWER STEERING MECHANISM THAT IS BAD. IT IS A RECALL AND ALREADY REPLACED AND IS BAD AGAIN. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WHERE THE CAR CAN STOP WORKING AT ANYTIME WHICH GIVES YOU NO CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE. *TR

WE HAVE A 2003 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER LTZ. THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IS GOING ALL CRAZY. THE SPEEDOMETER IS NOT WORKING. I SEE THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE ON A LOT OF THE VEHICLES. WE AHVE TWO CHILDREN AND HATE DRIVING A VEHICLE THAT WE DON'T KNOW HOW FAST WE ARE GOING. IT WOULD ONLY HAPPEN ONCE A MONTH AT FIRST AND NOW IT IS EVERY TIME WE DRIVE IT. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALSHIP AND WERE TOLD THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO PURCHASE A NEW ONE. *TR

SPEEDOMETER FLUXUATE SPORADICALLY, WRONG SPEED SHOWING. TOOK TO DEALER, DIAGNOSIS AS COMPONENT FAILURE. GMC ACKNOWLEDGE PROBLEM, BUT REFUSE TO RECALL. DEALER WILL REPLACE ODOMETER IF LESS THAN 80,000 MILES. *TR

A 2005 PONTIAC G6- THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM FAILING SPORADICALLY. CONTACTED GM (PHONE) REFUSED TO ACCEPT REPAIR/REPLACE THE UNIT, CITING TIME/MILEAGE. *TR

2006 MALIBU MAXX LT. POWER STEERING FAILURE WHILE HARD ACCELERATION. HAD THE PROBLEM SINCE THE FIRST DAY IT WAS PURCHASED. DEALERSHIP CANT DUPLICATED THE PROBLEM. WE ALMOST HAD 2 ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. POWER STEERING MESSAGE APPEARS ON THE CAR SYSTEM INFORMATION.. THE CAR ALWAYS PULLS HARD TO THE RIGHT IF THE ACCELERATION HAS TO BE DONE FAST. THE VEHICLE HAS CURRENTLY 75,000 MILES. *TR

I PURCHASED A 2007 CHEVROLET COBALT IN 2006 , THEY SOLD ME THE VEHICLE THAT THEY USED FOR TEST DRIVING, WHICH I TOLD THEM WAS OUT OF LINE AND THEY STILL MADE ME PURCHASE IT. I BOUGHT IT BACK A WEEK LATER AND THEY HAD TO LINE IT UP BECAUSE IT WAS ALL OVER THE ROAD. A MONTH LATER, THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOLD ME I HAD TO PAY $1200.00 TO GET IT FIXED UNTIL I NOTIFIED THE DISTRICT MANAGER AND HE MADE THEM FIX IT.THEN THE SECURITY AIR BAG LIGHT STAYED ON AND IT WOULD NOT PASS INSPECTION AND THEY TRIED TO MAKE ME PAY FOR THAT. I HAVE BEEN SPENDING MONEY ON TIRES ALL THE TIME, SPEND MONEY ON BRAKES ALL THE TIME, HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE ELECTRICAL UNITS TO THE RADIO KEEPS GOING OUT, BEARINGS IN THE WHEEL IS GONE, AND IT KEEPS CUTTING OFF. I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS SINCE I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE. I GOT A LETTER FOR THE RECALL FOR THE POWER STEERING AND WHEN I GOT MY CAR BACK, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON, THEY MESSED UP MY BOOT AND NOW TELLING ME I NEED TO FIX IT WHEN THEY HAD SOMEONE TO DRIVE MY CAR FOR 12 MILES. NOW ALL I GET IS A LOT OF DISRESPECT FROMTHEM AND THEY DON'T WANT TO REPAIR WHAT THEY MESSED UP. I ALSO WANTED TO PURCHASE ANOTHER CAR LAST MONTH FOR MY SON WHO GRADUATED FROM COLLEGE AND I HAD TO LOOK THROUGH THE WINDOWS TO SEE VEHICLES INSTEAD OF THE SALESMAN OPENING THE DOOR AND LETTING ME LOOK IN THE INSIDE. MIND YOU I BOUGHT A 16,000.00 CAR FROM THEY AND THAT'S HOW THEY APPRECIATE MY BUSINESS. I AM HEART BROKEN BECAUSE I FEEL AS IF I WAS ROBBED OF MY MONEY. I SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN GIVEN A CAR THAT THEY USE FOR TEST DRIVING. ALSO THE SECURITY AIRBAG LIGHT WOULD NOT GO OFF AND THEY WOULD NOT LET IT PASS INSPECTION. *TR
