Description of the problem	I see i am not the only one with a fluctuating fuel gauge sensor. I have been having this problem for the past six months. The sensor is always going up and down causing the fuel light to come on as well as well as the ck engine light. The code always indicates it is the fuel gauge sensor that is failing. According to what i have read, this car has two sensors located under the back seats. The dealer said it would cost me around $700. 00 to get one repaired, but what's the use if they replace it with another hyundai part that is defective as done to another complaintant on this site. This defect is obiviously a result of manufacturing so why does hyundai delay in getting this issue resolved by doing a recall. This is also the result of hyundai not taking due diligence in making sure they were installing a quality part. So why do we have to pay for their negligence?
