Issue
On certain vehicles, the fuel gauge may display the wrong fuel level (higher) when parked on a slope of at least 10 degrees. This could cause a driver to believe there is fuel when the tank is empty. In the worst case scenario, the vehicle could unexpectedly run out of fuel and stall.
Safety risk
A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective actions
The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to update the body control module software.
