Isuzu Ascender Fuel System, Gasoline Safety Report | Nov 05, 2010
Reported on Nov 05, 2010
| I PURCHASED A 2007 ISUZU ASCENDER WITH 9,900 MILES ON MONDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 2009. IN NOVEMBER OF 2010, THE GAS GAUGE STARTED TO READ INACCURATELY. IF I FILLED THE TANK, THE GAS GAUGE WOULD SHOW FILLED. AFTER DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70-80 MILES, THE GAUGE NEEDLE WOULD SLOWLY DROP TO 'E' AND THE LOW FUEL LIGHT WOULD COME ON. I SEARCHED THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND SEVERAL SIMILAR COMPLAINTS INVOLVING GMC VEHICLES. I AM NOT AWARE OF ANY RECALLS THAT WERE ISSUED, HOWEVER, I FEEL THERE SHOULD BE. BASED ON THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO EXPERIENCE THIS PROBLEM. FOR NOW, I CONTINUE TO FILL THE TANK, RESET THE TRIPOMETER AND REFILL ONCE I'VE DRIVEN 90-100 MILES, AS I AM NOT PREPARED TO SPEND $800 TO REPLACE THE FAULTY FUEL SENDING UNIT...THE MILEAGE ON THIS VEHICLE IS 24K.
