Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The fuel gauge on my 1999 chevrolet corvette has never worked properly and now the vehicle stops despite having several gallons of fuel in the tank. i have been stranded several times. most recently in a very dangerous traffic situation. i believe this is now a true safety concern. there also appears to be several service bulletins out on this problems so it does not appear to be isolated.*ak
