Eventually you will get ahold of somebody who cares about there customers. Tell them to order it and send you to a closer dealer.
Sucks when spend that kinda money and are disapointed like that.
But you know boats there is always gonna be something wrong with them or something that has to be fixed.
Good luck.

CaptJak, I know they should fix it with no inconvenience to you. In order to save you a hassle, I would check the ground wire to the tank, as this is a common problem.

Good luck

Is your dealer 100% positive that the gauge is the problem. Did they test the sending unit and wiring in addition to the gauge.

Besides Faria, VDO is a top quality gauge manufacturer. I am not saying that every gauge they make is defect free but it is some thing to think about?
