Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Normal everyday driving. During long stops (traffic lights or waiting) or upon start up and idling - the fuel gauge/level sensor will go from what ever level is in the tank to empty, indicates low fuel level also and after a few seconds to minutes the level indicator returns to normal. Sometimes it is immediate and reads normally, sometimes it seems to have to build up the signal for a while and then gets to the correct level.”
