1 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 06/12/2015

On my 2011 chevy Traverse on the fuel gauge once the fuel level reaches a half tank it suddenly drops to empty. It is hard to read the fuel level after that because honestly who has time to sit and calculate milage used everyday (I know I don't) I have read on other forums that this was happening on other years of Traverses and was told to report it. Even if the car sits for awhile it won't read the correct fuel level that is until fuel has been added to above the half tank mark.

2 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 05/29/2015

We bought the 2011 Chevrolet Traverse used with 99,000 miles on it. We noticed that on the car fax, other than just routine maintenance, the car had its fuel tank replaced. We questioned it, but did not think we would have problems, as the car was well taken care of. Every since we purchased the vehicle, when we fill up the car, it does not register on the fuel gauge correctly, if it registers at all. We cannot take long trips in the car without having to stop every so often and put gas in it, as we dont know how much is in there at any given time. This is a major concern to us. I see that there is a recall for the 2014 vehicles, but I also see that this has happened alot with the 2011 Traverse's, but no recall has been issued. I am hoping with this additional complaint and ongoing problem, that something will be done before someone gets seriously hurt, if they havent already. I do not know who the previous owner of my vehicle was, but they obviously had the same problem, hense replacing the fuel tank. Chevy, please issue a recall for this.

3 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 10/28/2011

I ran out of gasoline while driving but the meter said that the tank was half full. Since, I have run out of gasoline a total of 4 times since owning the vehicle. I am the original owner.
