We had the fuelpump/sending unit replaced and the gauge works now but is incorrect. It goes from 1/4 to empty in about 3 miles. How likely is it that when the dealer replaced the part they were too rough with it and caused a problem. Also is there a fix for the rag joint in the steering column that doesn't cost an arm and a leg

If your dealer put it in it is best to talk to him about it.
It should have some GM goodwrench warranty on it.
Does it work right down to a 1/4 tank?

Remeber it is best not to run your tank below a 1/4 anyway.

Does your delaer have and use a factory trained tech to change it?
Did he use the GM/delphi oem fuel pump?
Tip on going to the dealer
Ask that only a factory certified gasoline engine performance specialist work on your car.
Not all dealerships are concerned with how repairs are dispatched, and not all dealership techs bother to take advantage of the training offered by factory (the vast majority of which is paid training). If the dealer is uncooperative, ask for your money back and call around for a dealer that will accommodate you.
