| Description of the problem | Started my car and the check engine light and the fuel gage light was lit on dashboard. Shut off car. Waited few seconds, started car again. The gas gage needle went down to zero then jumped to full, which was correct since i had gassed up day before. The fuel gauge light went off, but the check engine light stayed on for remainder of that day. As of last night, 1/31/14, no warning lights are on. My local mechanic said he thought there was a recall on this, but i see there isn't even though i am reading several other people having same complaint over the past few years. *js |
