1 Tank Mounting problem

Failure Date: 12/01/2009

On this 2010 Armada, since the first use after purchase, the low fuel warning comes on with about 8 gallons left in the 28-gallon tank, while the fuel gauge needle appears to indicate the correct amount of remaining fuel. (our 2005 Armada developed this exact problem after a few years, and we have received the recall notice regarding the opposite problem in which some systems show more fuel than actual. ) at this point it is an inconvenience as opposed a safety issue, but, since the problem on our 2010 Armada is obviously merely a different symptom of probably the same faulty component, I feel the NHTSA should consider issuing a recall for the 2010 model as well (and for other year models not yet recalled) since the malfunction could just as well shift to the unsafe failure mode. It also seems very likely that many owners are experiencing the same malfunction as with my 2005 and 2010 models, but that the nhtsas statistics do not track such complaints problem because the faulty component is not yet unsafe in this particular mode of malfunction. (since the vehicle is at the dealership, I do not have access to the VIN or to our office records this weekend, but can provide the VIN later if it is possible to revise a posting. ).
