Tl*the contact owns a 2006 gmc envoy xl which was purchased january 2008. she stated that the fuel gauge continued to read empty even after she added fuel to the fuel tank. the low gas warning light remained illuminated. the vehicle was taken to the dealer who stated it would cost over $600 to repair it. there were no recalls pertaining to the failure. the current and failure mileages were under 53,705.
Fuel tank gauge sensor doesn't work properly. this defect could result in someone running out of gas and being stranded or may even cause the vehicle to stall or not start at all. *tr
The fuel gauge shows empty even when the tank is full. after the gauge has read empty for a while, the engine light then comes on. this is going to cost me 724.00 to get fixed, b/c the fuel pump needs replacing. *tr
The fuel gauge does not work in my 2006 gmc envoy. one day i filled this vehicle up and the gas gauge remained on empty and for a month it would read normal sometimes, but now it stays on empty this has occurred within the last three months. i took this car to a gmc dealer and they said that the problem was the fuel gauge sensor,i have 52,000 miles on this vehicle and it's not under warranty, so this problem still remains. *tr
I own a 2006 gmc envoy xl. we have 44000 miles on it. when we fill the gas the gauge reads full. by the time i pull off the lot the gauge starts to drop to empty. never know how much gas is in the tank. running out of gas in the middle of the night on the highway is a little scary for my wife. not to mention a huge safety issue. *tr
Had just filled the fuel tank and had driven about 5 miles when the check engine light came on and the fuel gauge had gone down to the empty mark setting off the low fuel alarm. pulled off the road to check the gas cap, and it was installed, but loose. discovered the o ring gasket was missing from cap. drove another 10 miles and went to auto parts store and purchased a replacement cap. engine check light extinguished, but fuel gauge sweeps back and forth, sometimes setting off low fuel alarm. will call dealer on monday to see if there is a sb for this. almost out of warranty. *tr
ran out of gas when gauge indicated remaining full. shortly after this situation the gauge registered erratically and then empty all the time with alarm sounding randomly. est. for repairs in the $700 range. *tr
Tl* the contact owns a 2006 gmc envoy xl. the contacted stated that after refueling, the fuel gauge displayed an empty reading. the failure recurred whenever the vehicle was refueled. the vehicle was never taken for failure diagnostics. the failure mileage was 35,000 and the current mileage was 81,000.
The fuel tank sensor module on my 2006 gmc envoy failed causing the tank level indicator to fluctuate and read improperly. the vehicle had only about 41,000 miles on it and was approximately two years old. *tr the fix was to replace the module, at a cost of $700. this is an excessive price for a module that should have lasted longer than two years.
