just bought a new tremor. traded in my 2015 SD. had to drive some 90 miles home from the dealership and already a MIL light. classic new truck stuff. darn thing says 3/4 tank then within a a few seconds says im empty. I stopped at a gas station and was only able to put in ~5 gallons. so I know its topped off. problem persists. luckily I was couple miles from my house and I have a good scan tool to check the code. Turns out it a stuck fuel level float. we shall see if it starts to work normally or if I have to take it to local dealership for them to drop the tank and replace to float.

Maybe some taps on the bottom of the tank with a mallet will help free it up?
 
Welcome to the forum and the Tremor family. Hope this is the extent of any new truck issues. By and large most have few if any problems so hopefully smooth sailing after this problem is solved. See you on the forum. ? ?:cool:

Welcome to the forum! Sorry to hear about the issues right off the bat, I'm sure that is frustrating. Let us know how it goes.
