Half To Empty Tank Instantly!

[BrooseDaMoose]

I was driving home from Providence, RI and I had about a half a tank of gas. I was cruising along at about 80 when suddenly I got a warning message that said "0 Miles To Empty" and the gauge was not indicating any fuel. WTF is that all about? I couldn't find anything on here about it but has it happened to anyone else? I stopped for fuel and it only took 11 gallons so it wasn't empty. When I started it back up it was full.

I would have tried restarting to see if the low fuel warning went away before filling up. That way you would have known if it was a malfunction. I've never heard of this happening. I have twice experienced running out of gas. Once on an 1/8 tank 50 miles to empty result in stalling out on an incline and having the fuel pump burn out. This happened at about 10K miles. I had to be towed to dealer and fuel pump replaced under warranty. Another time on a very cold day, I remote started twice when I was at 1/8 tank 70 miles to empty. I ran out of gas because I was parked in my driveway which has an incline. I had to add 3 or 4 gallons of gas before it would start. Now I never let it go below 1/4 tank just to be safe!

I knew it was a glitch because I hadn’t driven 300+ miles since my last fill up. I always fill up at half a tank.

I had a 2020 A-Build, name any problem these vehicles commonly have that thing had it. But I’m here still aren’t I? These things got me hooked, now have a 2022 with its fair share of problems and no regrets still. I think it’s just something that’s just become all too common. Heck, look at Jeep and Toyota.

This is the sixth car I've owned and happens to be my favorite but at the same time I've never had so many major repairs in such a short time!

Let’s see, FHS Speed Sensor, FADA, 4WD Module, Transmission, Rear Differential, Thermal R&D Resonator, Vibration when decelerating, creeking rear end and now the fuel gauge issue. Did I forget anything?

Lets see on my 2020 A-Build……AWD module, flex pipes, transmission replacement, window switch peeling, heated seats inoperable, shock leaking at 9k miles, front seat clips not holding (leather was floppy), exhaust weld failure, upside down screen often, blue screen (nothing special though), paint abnormalities (sand looking stuff on it), front half shafts tear, and cat converter crack.

Even through all of that, I love these vehicles, sold the 2020 and bought a 2022 that has thus far had its tranny replaced but otherwise problem free lol.
