The fuel guage gives false reading, the needle will position way pass the "full". after putting in fuel, it will move to the "full" mark or show just any amount without the tank being full. It is avery hard act to follow especially in these times when I cannot afford to top off the tank. In other words, this fuel guage is very unruly and has its own way in registering what it feels like showjng me. Is there a recall". how can I correct this embarassing situation".
