    Grand Am Gas Gauge

    My gas gauge is fare from accurate. Ran out when showing a 1/4 tank. I
    have seen service bulletins, but no recall. What is the story with this. I
    am not paying to fix a known issue. Anyone have details?

    Thank you,

    What year is the car? If the float in the tank has a hole in it, it will fill
    with gas and sit towards the bottom of the tank.

    It's been a long time since I've seen
    "that" type of float used in a fuel tank.

    What year? And I suspect that you
    will not be the one that decides whether
    you "pay to fix a known issue". That
    will be up to the manufacturer.

    There are TSB's for this issue relating to corroded contacts on the
    sender/gauge unit. Just want to know how to handle the dealer.

    Are you still under the manufacturer's warranty? Because if not,
    TSB's do not mean that you get parts replaced even if they
    are defective. Fuel issues are causing most of the problems
    with the senders. Some of the fuel issues have been addressed
    by the fuel companies...but I thought someone posted a link
    here (or somewhere) about the type of metal used in the
    sending unit being part of the problem. Anyway, I know I
    read some article about this.

    No, not under warranty. I know the TSB means nothing, but I was wondering
    if anyone had success in getting the dealer to correct the issue. I just
    don't want to pull the dang tank. That definitely does not rate highly on
    my job list, if you know what I mean.
