No, never had it happen. Seems like the sender unit is faulty. |

It happened to me yesterday but not exac tly as you experienced. I suspect it had to do with me accidentally starting the vehicle and not letting it finish its system check. When I came out from a haircut, I started the vehicle but the light never went out and the gauge showed almost empty but I knew I had a full tank. I drove away and it started to climb slowly and the light went out. I drove about 2km and by then it had reached half way. I stopped the vehicle went did some shopping and when I came back and started the vehicle, everything was okay. So far today it is okay |

I have different problem, when I fill up it shows full, as I use fuel it goes down gradually, however the tank is empty on just under a quarter showing on the guage. The trip display showing how many miles left seems fine and the low fuel warning comes on when the trip display shows approx 60 miles left. The dealer thinks it is a faulty sender possiblby sticking in the tank. I am not so sure as the guaage keeps going down all the time.
