This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
I was traveling North on I-95 at 70 mph in South Carolina. Fuel gauge indicated 1/4 tank of gas and over 100 miles to empty. The obd light came on and the car slowed down (5-10 mph). I was able to roll it off the road onto the right shoulder. Gas gauge indicated a 1/4 tank of fuel. I turned the ignition off and sat for15 minutes. When I attempted to start the vehicle, it acted as though it had no gas. However, the gauge showed a 1/4 tank full. Vehicle was towed (aaa) to an exxon station in gable, SC. Fuel was added to the tank and the car could be started. The addition of $25 of fuel (6 gallons?) did not move the gauge from the 1/4 tank level. An additional $25 fueling brought the gauge almost up to full. I drove it roughly 500 miles from SC to md without incident. However, I did not allow fuel level to drop below 1/2.
