FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE GAS GAUGE QUIT WORKING! I JUST PUT 50.00 DOLLARS IN MY GAS TANK AND DROVE 12 MILES TO GET MY THREE GRANDCHILDREN. WE WERE ON THE FREEWAY GOING 64 MILES PER HR IN THE FAST LANE. I HAD TO IMMEDIATELY GET OVER THREE LANES TO GET OFF THE FREEWAY BUT ONLY MADE IT TO THE SLOW LANE. I HAD TO CALL 911 BECAUSE IT WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I ALMOST GOT HIT EIGHT TIMES WAITING FOR THE STATE TROOPER TO GET TO ME SO HE COULD PUSH US OUT OF HARMS WAY WITH HIS PATROL CAR. I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS WASN'T A RECALL! THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS.
