The dealer finished replacing the gas tank under the recall, (my gas tank was leaking by the heat shield). I filled up this morning and now my gas gauge doesn’t read past a half a tank. I made sure I filled it up, I kept tripping the shutoff until gas started coming out. Where is the fuel level sensor in the tank and how could they made it read incorrectly after installing a new tank? I’m really hoping they don’t say it’s unrelated to fixing the tank because I have never, never had a problem with the fuel gauge in the car and I’ve had it since new.


As a side note, I was a little miffed I gave them the car with about a 1/2 tank of gas and I got it back with not even a 1/4 of a tank.

Thanks,
Scott
