I was wondering if you ever got the problem taken care of. I am in the process of sewing GM but am interested in starting a class action suit which only takes two people. Please email me back and let me know.

Ayup.
 GM knows...there was a TSB but not a recall 'cause it was NOT a "safety issue".
I STRONLY DISAGREE!!! When my wife is stranded on the interstate up against a "Jersey Barrier" (in the fast lane)during rush hour traffic it IS a "SAFETY ISSUE"!!!
>8-(
   
I replaced it myself. Found the sensor online for $68 when all the STEELerships wanted $130.
One STEELership lied to me and told me I had to buy the whole pump/sensor unit $580!!!!!
I NEVER bring my cars to STEELerships!!! I do all my own work on my 12 vehicles.
What your email??
I'm pissed as hell GM for not repairing this under a TSB warranty!

I have had one replaced under warr on our 2005 and just had to pay for the one to get fixed on our 2006. The 2005 gauge is having issues again and now out of warr. Where do I sign up?

You mention transmission work and fuel sensor failing. Do you know what caused it? I just had 2001 tranny replaced (102000 mi) by dealer and when I picked it up the fuel gauge no longer works. Needless to say they claim that nothing they did had anything to do with it. Those sensors just go bad at the drop of a hat. I don't think so. Too much of a coincidence.

I would have to say "coincidence" as well. They fail. Why? No clue.
I don't think any tranny work could've caused it as it's inside the tank.
Maybe they gave the tank a good HIT, but it's plastic and should absorb the blow.
BUT, you never know...it was due to go and an "innocent" hit could have been the straw that broke the preverbial camels back.
