    Hi,
    I filled up my Vue a few days ago. Guage went to full. As I drove for the
    next 1/2 hr it plummeted to a 1/4 tank like I was leaking fuel. ( i wasn't).
    Now it just hangs around empty, if I fill up it might go to almost 1/2 tank
    reading. The car runs fine so it knows it has fuel. Any ideas on what
    failed, electrical, or whatever?

    Thanks, Jim

    I don't know, but I had the very same problem with my 03 Vue this
    winter. On some of the coldest days, it would behave exactly as
    you describe. It only did it a couple times, and I haven't had a
    problem since. If you find out what the deal is, please post.

    Seems like something the dealer should fix under warranty.
    Most likely it is a problem with the sending unit in the
    tank.
