What owners wrote

#1 problem-- I only have 40,000 miles on my car and bought it less than a year ago. My fuel tank does not work-- it floats and I never know how much gas I have in my tank #2 problem- driving home last night-- I looked down at my speedometer and it was stuck over 120 MPH. I am very unhappy with GMC and tell everyone I know never to buy any chevy vehicles-- these problems should not be happening so soon on a newer vehicle.

Fuel gauge does not work. I will fill up the tank and turn on the car and it reads low fuel and the indicator light comes on. Then I can be driving and it will jump up to past 1/4 tank then slowly go down to e and read low fuel.
