Description of the problem | Similar to the recently announced recall on 2014 buick enclaves for a faulty gas gauge, the same problem occurs on the 2011 model that i just purchased as well. I have owned the vehicle for 6 weeks and 3 times have experienced the gas gauge indicate an inaccurate amount of fuel. Twice after the vehicle was turned off and turned back on, the gauge reset to an accurate ready. However one after turning the vehicle off twice, the gas gauge did not reset..... It was not until the following day that the gas gauge gave a accurate reading. |
