Fuel gauge does not display the correct fuel level. Fuel gauge will indicate full when tank is empty, or empty when tank is full. Has caused a check engine light on numerous occasions.

Erratic fuel gauge. At times gauge will read empty when tank is near full or will read full when fuel tank is half full.

I was driving down the road then I noticed my fuel gauge went up to full then went down to empty and stayed there. I decided to stop and get gas and filled up my tank, once I started the car again the fuel gauge still read empty. As I was driving home the gauge slowly started to move to full but later went back to empty once I arrived home. The past 2 weeks after the first incident the gauge has been staying on empty even with a full tank. Im afraid of running out of fuel while driving out in the country or on the highway and getting into an accident. I have a family and fear for our safety when we are out driving and not sure how much fuel is in our vehicle.

My fuel gauge reading has been going back and forth from empty to full. I have put a full tank of gas in it and it reads empty. This began a few weeks ago and has not stopped. It has caused my engine light to come on as well. I went to have it tested at a shop and they said it was the fuel sender. I have researched and found a number of complaints about this. I ask how will I be compensated for this inconvenience?.

Fuel gauge is failing to register gas in the tank, and engine keeps stalling.

The first time I noticed a problem I was at the gas station. My fuel gauge indicated the vehicle was close to empty and needed gas. The vehicle has a 22-gal tank, but the pump stopped at 10 gallons. It would not take any more. I thought that was odd. I had never had any other problems with the vehicle. Since the problem started the vehicle will only take 10-12 gallons of gas. My husband thinks there is more gas in the tank, but i’m not taking any chances. I reset the trip meter to zero each time I get gas. My vehicle gets approx. 18 mpg. I used to fill up at about 330 miles on the trip meter. One day, upon getting in the vehicle, the low fuel light was on. The vehicle had been driven approximately 216 miles. The gas hand came up to half a tank and then quickly began to drop to empty. The miles range (how many miles you need until you get gas) just starts quickly ticking down the miles. This has happened several times. Now when I get near 216 miles driven I get gas. There is no stalling or anything like that. I have not run out of gas. I get gas immediately when the gauge starts dropping and the miles range starts ticking down. I make sure I hit the trip meter so I don't run out of gas. It sounds like a gas sensor or something like that. I will take it to the dealership next week to see what is wrong. I believe there needs to be a recall for this item. Can you help? this problem started around June 10, 2011.

After filling the fuel tank the gauge is still reading empty. While driving the gauge jumped up to full then dropped back to empty.

SAAB 97x SUV. . . Fuel gauge giving false readings. My mechanic told me it is a rampant problem with gm units of similar vintage. My gas gauge started giving me occasional false readings a few thousand miles ago. They become more and more frequent. Currently, the gas gauge only reads empty. While I can figure out how many miles I can travel before the need to fill up, I fear my wife may not be able to keep track as easily. I'm just afraid that the car will be rear-ended if it stalls out from a false reading, and the gas tank actually is empty.

I have a 2006 SAAB 97-x. Over the past two years I have had problems with my fuel guage. I have run out of gas several times and now have to monitor my fuel through my consumption reading to know how much I have. I have almost stalled several times on the freeway. I am now seeing that I am not the only person with this problem and I am lucky I am observant enough as a driver to not have been injured in a crash. The local SAAB dealer wanted over $600 to drop my fuel tank and "investigate" the problem. This is ridiculous and gm should be responsible and accountable for this problem!!!.

On numerous occasions while driving my vehicle, it has registered half a tank to a quarter tank of fuel. While driving, with no warning, the vehicle has stalled, and later was determined to be out of gas. It has occurred at least 4 occasions in the past 6-8 months, always while I was on the highway.

Fuel gage inconsistant. With full tank of fuel, gage shows empty. After using approx three gallons of fuel, gage will work, after using approx six more gallons of fuel, gage shows empty. Does not work again until tahk is full and approx three gallons of fuel is used again, than stop's working after approx six gallons of fuel is used.

This vehicle is the same platform as a Chevrolet trailblazer, GMC envoy, Buick rainier. Sensor failed at 50,500 miles which is 500 miles out of warranty. This problem is widely reported and documented.
