Sending unit inside of gas tank: when full of gas, gauge says below empty & gas light comes on. When 7/8 full to almost empty gas gauge reads correct, when empty gas gauge reads 2nd to last line, car runs out of gas & no gas light comes on. When you are driving at 50 MPH and run out you could crash. When car is parked for 4+min. Gauge goes below empty & fuel light comes on.

Fuel sensor failed on vehicle less than 2 years old but past warranty. Symptoms were fuel gauge failed to work or worked incorrectly and engine light would come on intermittently. I was unable to determine how much gas was in tank. Had to pay $630 for parts and labor to replace fuel sensor since I am 5k miles over the 36k warranty.

Engine stalled while driving down an incline without any indication until applying the brakes to find the power brakes had been lost. Weather conditions were slick and the vehicle started to spin and could not be corrected due to loss of power steering. Vehicle could not be slowed using the lower engine gears. Once the vehicle coasted to a stop, the battery light came on. The vehicle was put in park, turned the key to the engine-off position and then on. Onstar diagnostics did not detect any problems in system tests. Fuel level was approx. 3 gallons. ***************************************************************************************************the failure almost caused an accident of running over a pedestrian and collision with other vehicles (no control and no warning from the vehicle systems of stall). This is the second incident; initial incident occurred while leaving inclined driveway - potential of entering roadway. My child was riding as a passenger in the vehicle for both incidents. ***************************************************************************************************
