Description of the problem	The check engine light came on and the fuel gauge would fluctuate at times but when the light would go off the gauge would work properly. Then the light stayed on all the time and the fuel gauge would work off and on. Now neither one works at all and we have been trying to estimate how much gas we have,but that does not always work out. My husband is disabled and i have to travel a curvy country road at 430 am by myself and just recently i ran out of gas while going to work. My husband was unable to come and get me due to his disability so i sat on the side of the road from 430am to 630am waiting for someone to help me . This is the first hyundai i've ever owned and i was very satisfied until this problem only to find out that many people have complained of the same problem and hyundai has refused to fix the problem. Now there wasn't an accident or injury or even a fatality,by grace of god,but there very well could have been all those things it should not have to come to that. I hope you step up to the plate hyundai and protect your good name while there is time to do so.
