Two problems related to tank assembly have been reported for the 2001 Chevrolet 1500. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The fuel gauge on my truck does not read right. It sticks one minute one way , then it will say I have a full tank, and then drop to empty. I am afraid I am gonna be stranded one day, being a woman with children and constantly on the road, this scares me. I have a 2001 1500hd Chevrolet 4 door truck. It is not that old to have problems with this. I am concerned over it because my husband has a 2000 Chevrolet 2500hd and the same thing happened,one of the guys that works for same company and has truck alike, had to take his in and get it fixed for same reason,then I was telling our friends about it and says theirs does the same thing. All Chevrolets, and so we got to thinking maybe this is something that needs to be checked into. I am gonna have to get mine fixed shortly because of the fear of being stranded, I try to keep up with when I put gas in and the mileage, but sometimes you just forget!! please let me know if this is a recall problem or could be in the future. We were just wondering@ thanks!.
The gauge in the fuel tank goes wild goes from full to empty in a matter of seconds I never now if its full or empty. .
