FAULTY GAS GAUGE ON A 1997 GMC ENVOY WHICH FIRST LEAD TO INACCURATE AND RANDOM FUEL LEVEL READINGS. NOW IT DOESN'T WORK AT ALL, PROMPTING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO BE ON CONSTANTLY WHICH MEANS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS IGNORED SINCE IT IS CONSTANTLY ON - THIS MAY MASK OTHER CHECK ENGINE SITUATIONS FROM BEING NOTICED. *TR

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
