2013 MKZ Hybrid Gas Tank Levels


Recommended Posts

Ok folks -

 

I noticed this earlier but it slipped my mind until I was reminded of it again today ...

 

My gas tank gauge gives its first warning at 10.17 gallons (give or take a tenth of a gallon) - goes to "yellow" ....

Then at 11.07 gallons (used) it goes to "red" .... ok not a huge deal .... but in doing so the gauge shows what almost looks like a "negative" bars view.

 

then at 11.5 it goes back to yellow ....... and it is out of the "negative" .....

according to the tank's size of 13.5 gallons .... I still have 2 gallons left ...

 

A similar behavior happened on my last tank ...... and when I ended up filling up - the gas pumped and the gas that the gauge reported that I had used were within 1/10th of a gallon (both times I've filled up)

 

Anyone else seen this ....?

Are they trying to brow beat us into never letting the tank get below 2.5 gallons ?
