Fuel gage is showing it is on empty and the tank is full. This does not matter if the tank is 1/2 or full. The truck can be in park or in drive. It happens when the truck is sitting still for more than a minute. Then the gage will jump from full to empty and in all other directions. This has cause me to run out of gas a couple of times. I know have to reset my trip to keep up with the miles that I have put on the truck.

- St.Johns, MI, USA

Fuel gauge initially did not register correct amount of fuel when tank is >7/8 full. Now the fuel gauge registers the wrong amount of fuel over 50% of the time no matter how full the tank is. This is very dangerous and can leave drivers standed in very dangerous places, especially considering this is a 4X4 vehicle that my family and I use to get into very remote locations. This should be recalled!

Gas guage appears to have a short in it, when tank is fullit jumps back and forth. Truck had 89K at that time to replace it it was quoted 350-400. This appears to be a lemon in workmanship, or poor quaility material. I have spook with other who have the same problem.

Faulty fuel gauge, jumps from full to empty when truck is idleing and during driving. Talked with other owners and to large companies that use Chevy trucks and found out that this problem only exist with the Chevy's and not GMC counter part. There should be a recall on this since this problem has been addressed since 1998. The dealership told me it was afuel pump issue.

- West Palm Bch, FL, USA

In January 2004 my gas guage started jumping from full to empty.when you give the gas tank a gentle hit with your hand, the problem goes away. I have read that many other GM owners have had this problem. I don't go to the dealer because the technicians do poor work. I use the trip odometer and filled up the gas tank at 300 miles. I believe there should be a recall. Somebody could run out of gas in a very dangerous location.

Fuel gauge is very irractic. Shows low fuel even when tank is full. Asked service manager about problem and he said it's a common problem with that vehicle and very expensive to repair, but you get a new fuel pump. Should be recalled and repaired free by GM.

- Maryville, TN, USA

Fuel gauge does not read correctly the amount of fuel in tank. Very dangerous for multiple drivers of same vehicle, especially for women with infants and young children. Problem began as soon as I purchased the truck. Problem occurs each time vehicle is driven. Dealer wants $700 for repair. Several owners of same model truck have described same problem. This should definitely be a recall for obvious reasons.
