Fuel Gauge When the ignition is on, the fuel gauge shows how much fuel the vehicle has remaining in the fuel tank. Here are four things that some owners ask about. None of these indicate a problem with the vehicle's fuel gauge: . At the gas station, the gas pump shuts off before the gauge reads full. It takes a little more or less fuel to fill up than the gauge indicated. For example, the gauge may have indicated the tank was half full, but it actually took a little more or less than half the tank's capacity to fill the tank. The gauge moves a little while turning a corner or speeding up. The gauge does not go back to empty when the ignition is turned off. . . . An arrow on the fuel gauge indicates the side of the vehicle the fuel door is on. When the fuel in the fuel tank is low, a LOW FUEL message will display on the Driver Information Center (DIC).
