I've experienced this with my 2015 Hyundai Sonata and a family member's 2016 Toyota Avalon.
Sonata is supposed to have an 18.5 gallon tank, but when the gas gauge is completely on empty and the range is at 0 miles, I fill it up and it takes 16-16.5 gallons. Where's the other two?
Avalon is supposed to have a 17 gallon tank, gas gauge all the way down and the range went down to 0 and I just filled it up at 14.6 gallons.
I think it's ridiculous, yeah I know you shouldn't run it real low cause it cools the pumps and I usually don't but I like to know how much I've got if I'm in a pinch on a road trip. My Camry has an 18.5 gallon tank and the gas gauge is spot on.
Any reason why car manufacturers are doing this? They should lower the numbers to usable amounts or recalibrate the computers and senders.
