2004 Buick Lesabre

WHILE DRIVING HOME MY FUEL GAUGE STOPPED WORKING. WHEN I GOT HOME I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON AND THE FUEL GAUGE WAS NOW IN THE 6 POSITION ON A CLOCK. NOW I HAVE NO IDEA IF THERE IS ANY FUEL IN THE CAR OR NOT. LUCKILY I RESET THE TRIP METER WITH EVERY FUEL UP SO I KNOW I CAN GO APPROXIMATELY 300 MILES. ALTHOUGH IN THE WINTER WHEN WE HAVE TO IDLE OUR CAR SO THE FUEL MILEAGE GOES DOWN AND I DO NOT GET AS MANY MILES ON A TANK. HOPE I DON'T RUN OUT OF FUEL DURING THE WINTER. IN READING ONLINE REVIEWS ABOUT THIS ISSUE IT TURNS OUT IT CAN GET WORSE AND CAUSE THE SPEEDOMETER TO STOP WORKING. THEN I MAY BE SPEEDING AND NOT EVEN KNOW IT. I DID TRY AND HAVE IT FIXED BUT THE GUY CHARGED ME $207 AND IT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. AT THE LOCAL GM DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THEY WOULD REPAIR IT FOR $350.

AT 68,000 MILES AND IN THE MONTH OF JULY 2014 MY BUICK LESABRE SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER STOPPED WORKING....THE HANDS DO NOT MOVE AT ALL.....I DO NOT KNOW HOW FAST I AM DRIVING WHICH IS DANGEROUS AND CAN CAUSE DEATH....THIS IS A NUMBER ONE COMPLAINT OF THIS CAR AND IT SHOULD BE RECALLED BEFORE IM DEAD! I CANNOT AFFORD THE REPAIRS BECAUSE I AM ON DISABILITY....THIS IS AN URGENT MATTER THAT NEED TO BE TAKEN CARE OF IMMEDIATELY! *TR

2004 SILVERADO & 2004 BUICK. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO BOTH VEHICLES NEED A NEW CLUSTER AND THE NEEDLE ON THE MILE INDICATOR IS AT 120. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE GAS GAUGE HAS NOT WORKED FOR TWO YEARS. ALSO, HE HAD NO IDEA HOW FAST HE WAS DRIVING. THE CONSUMER STATED HAVING BOTH VEHICLES REPAIRED, WOULD COST $1000.00 *JB

WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, SPEEDOMETER WOULD INCREASE TO AS HIGH AS 90 MPH WITH NO INCREASE FROM DRIVER. THIS HAS BEEN REPEATED SEVERAL TIMES OVER LAST YEAR OF OPERATION. ALSO GAS GAUGE INFO HAS MAXED OR BOTTOMED OUT. I CAN FIX THIS PROBLEM BY REMOVING AND REINSTALLING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FUSE UNDER THE BACK SEAT. WHEN THIS IS DONE YOU CAN HEAR SOMETHING UNDER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL RESET. DEPENDING ON THE LOCAL TEMPERATURE I MIGHT BE ABLE TO GO UP TO 3 MONTHS BEFORE HAVING TO REPEAT THIS SEQUENCE. NOW THE A/C IS PUTTING OUT COOL AIR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE VENTS ONLY. *TR

I PURCHASED MY 2004 LESABRE IN 2005. APPROXIMATELY 3 YEARS AGO, THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD REGISTER 120 WHEN I WAS MOVING OR WHEN THE CAR WAS STOPPED OR PARKED. I SPOKE TO MY MECHANIC AND HE TOLD ME THAT IT WAS AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR. I AM A VERY CONSERVATIVE DRIVER BUT AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SPEEDOMETER AND THE GAS GAUGE NOT FUNCTIONING. I HAVE A DEBILITATING DISEASE AND CANNOT EVEN PUMP MY OWN GAS. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF I HAD TO TRY AND WALK TO A GAS STATION. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THIS IS NOT A RECALL!! HOW MANY COMPLAINTS DOES IT TAKE?? I LOVE MY CAR BUT MAY HAVE TO SPEND A LOT OF MONEY TO FIX A PROBLEM THAT IS GM'S RESPONSIBILITY. I AM SHOCKED AT THE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS VERY PROBLEM. I AM ALSO SURE THAT THERE ARE MANY MORE NOT REPORTED. PLEASE DO SOMETHING!! *TR
