Fuel/Propulsion System
This 2007 malibu will just die on you at a stop light and sometimes when you are backing up. The fuel gauge has not been working for a long time a little over a year.

Fuel/Propulsion System
After filling the gas tank on my 2007 chevy malibu the gas gauge went to empty and began acting erratically. This has happened 6-7 times over the past month. Typically when this happens the check engine light also comes on but not always, called the dealer, sounds like a fuel sensor which will cost around $800 to fix, also, speedometer is has been jumping around for about 2 years now! Had the car in the dealer…
