 Fuel gauge is not working properly on my vehicle. it stays on e when there is plenty of gasoline in the car. there have been several complaints about this that i have seen on websites. ocassionally the gauge willl move up but then go back to e. i went to dealer and they said it is a bad fuel senor guage which is in the gasoline tank. seems like this is a common issue and could cause other problems. the fuel gauge has been like that for over 6 months, as the cost was astronomical and i believe there should be a recall. additionally, recently my oil pressure gauge has shown the max amount and then last night it went down to the lowest amount on the instrument panel. it goes back and forth from high to low and the oil pressure low light comes on the instrument panel and then goes off. it says to stop engine. there does not appear to be anything physically wrong with my engine and i will be taking it to the dealer tomorrow to confirm that. i believe both of these issues are caused by a faulty instrument panel or electrical system included in gm's models. i have a family member with an older gmc suv with similar issues and they also had issues with a gmc truck they used to have but got rid of it, due to the malfunctions. seems like a very common issue that should be resolved by ge.

 Tl- the contact owns a 2006 gmc envoy denali. the contact noticed that when fueling the vehicle that the gas gauge fluctuated and was reading inaccurately. he was unable to determine how much gas was actually in the vehicle. the vehicle was taken to the dealer and the contact was advised to have the fuel level sender replaced. the contact did not inform the manufacturer nor was the vehicle repaired. the current mileages was approximately 60,000 and the failure mileages were 55,000. the vin was unavailable. bw

 2006 envoy denali. consumer writes states gas needle stopped functioning *tgw the consumer stated the gas needle began to fluctuate in the beginning and since that time, the needle has been stuck on empty, and the engine light illuminated as a result. in march of 2009, when the consumer stared the vehicle, it sounded as if there was something metal tumbling around under the hood. upon inspection of the vehicle, it was determined the engine needed to be replaced. on june 10, 2010, the vehicle would not start and had to be towed to the dealer. an inspection revealed a starter was needed. also, an alignment was done and the rear brake light was replaced. on june 12, 2010, the vehicle would not come out of park. after 25 minutes and over 50 attempts, it finally came out of park. the consumer drove to the dealer, but they were unable to find a problem. september 2010, the consumer noticed the rear of the truck was sitting very low. the rear end air suspension needed to be replaced. the air condition randomly worked. there were times where the air would just start blowing and no buttons were pushed. also, the defroster stopped working. the consumer continued to experience problems with the vehicle not coming out of park. *jb
