First incident of the fuel sensor failing (low fuel light and fuel gauge indicator false) was at 45,500 miles which was covered under warranty the first time. 2nd time failed on 02/16/2009 at 133,697 miles which costs me 754. 67. 3rd time which is currently starting to act up again at 174,500 miles, and will probably cost me another 754. 67!! first of all I can understand once on a vehicle but 3 times is ridiculous, not to mention the expense! Chevrolet should have had some type of recall on this or least figure out what is causing this. No doubt this is a defect with this part and very expensive to repair. I'm about to get rid of this vehicle due to this problem which will still cost me money in the end with trade-in or selling it myself so I will probably have repair it for the 3rd time. I have researched this problem and it seems a lot of people have experienced this issue. I have lost faith in gm and will probably never purchase another one. This issue could be dangerous if people do not correct this problem. Not everyone has 750. 00 laying around and gm should fix for free especially when it happens a 2nd, 3rd time!.
