problem #1

Feb 212007

(reported on)

Silverado 1500 V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 100,000 miles

Fuel gauge will drop to show empty when the tank is not. Due to busy schedule, haven't been able to get appt to fix but upon talking to another Chevy Silverado owner he too is having the same problem. Very inconvenient to have to always remember how many miles I have driven since my last fill up. I was hoping that other owners might have the same problem so that a possible recall can be issued.
