Description of the problem	The fuel gauge started app. 2 weeks ago not registering the proper amount of fuel in the tank, even after numerous times of filling the tank up completly. 3 days ago now the check engine light had come on & would not go out! I made a appt . With the dealer i bought it from for today & was i ever surprised and shocked when the service adviser informed me the cost to replace the fuel sensors in the fuel tank that is causing the check engine light to stay on constantly was normaly about $1,200. 00, but they could do it for the price of $811. 00!! I had no choice but to go ahead and have the work done due to the check engine light staying on all the time i woukld never get my vehicle through the state inspection. Hyundai motor co.
