Engine Performance problem
2006 Pontiac G6 4 cyl All Wheel Drive Automatic 72K miles

The gas gauge is randomly going to "e" indicating that the car is out of gas, when there is gas, over 1/2 tank, car is chugging as if it is out of gas, 3 days random times. Engine light has not come on, and getting an error message in the window where the odometer is. I have been told it is the sending unit? My question, what is that, and could that be the culprit

fuel level sending unit is the component which transmits the fuel level to the vehicle's fuel gauge. it is part of the fuel pump module and yes it could be the cause of your symptoms.
