The complaints state that the fuel gauges show that the car has more gas than it actually does. In 58 of the complaints received, the driver actually ran out of gas because of the issue &#8211; with one of these unexpected engine stalls leading to an accident.<\/p>\n<p>U.S News reports that the NHTSA supposedly received an additional 610 reports about the problem, though those drivers did not run out of gas.<\/p>\n<p>The models in question are all built on the same platform and include the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=Saab\" class=\"dnautolink\">Saab<\/a> 9-7X, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=Chevrolet\" class=\"dnautolink\">Chevrolet<\/a> Trailblazer, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=GMC\" class=\"dnautolink\">GMC<\/a> Envoy and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=Buick\" class=\"dnautolink\">Buick<\/a> Rainier. It&#039;s worth noting that Saab is no longer part of GM, as it was sold off to a third party.<\/p>\n<p>No official recall has been issued, so drivers will have to wait and see what the NHTSA finds before taking their car in for service.<\/p>\n<p>Drivers interested in a used car or SUV should be aware of any potential recall or safety news for the vehicles they&#039;re considering.
