3 new fuel pump rails installed from recall ( gas gauge does not work). the problem still occurs, the gauge works for a small amount of time after new fuel rail is installed, then fails, leaving no way to check the amount of fuel left in the tank. | |||

The driver information center-fuel used is always off at least 1.5 gallons when filling the tank. this in turn causes the miles per gallon to also be off. one dealer mechanic said they have a problem with the unit. but my dealer says this is normal. when on a trip, my brothers two cadillacs both read correct fuel used. the gm 800 help line never returns my calls. *la |
