Noticed that fuel gauge didn't start moving off full for about 100 to 125 miles. Then wife was 1 mi. away from home with a quarter tank on the gauge and ran out of gas... 16 gallon tank, added 2.5 from a can and 13.5 from the gas station. CEL came on with a p0300 code, "multiple cylinder misfires". Filled it up and so far no problem. Not sure if it's an easy fix or not?

for the past few weeks my car has been chugging like I have put some bad ags in my car. i was using mid grade and even changed to a higher grade.. and used gas treatment... Now when Im sitting a red light it chuggs so much i feel like just getting ot and kicking the f*ck out of this car... so the light turns green the car hesitates and then cuts completely off... i mean damn what the hell is up Ive had the car for 3 f@#$&*g months.

My gas gauge read 1/4 of a tank while at a stop light the car started to "chug" when light turned green I had no power and my car completely shut off

I went and put gas in this car yesterday. It was right above 1/2 tank. That was ok. I went to work, after work I started the car and I had a full tank. Now mind you I did about and 1 worth of driving after noticing the problem and the gas gauge still has not moved. What the hell is wrong with this car?
