    Hello! I have a used 2009 Base that I bought in September. The gas gage has never been totally accurate (it will give a warning at one bar, but I’ll still have 4-5 gallons in the tank.) I filled up today and It only let me put 5 gallons in, even though the one bar was flashing and I had the beep warning. The real problem is that the gas gage has yet to reset; I drove three miles and it is still reading at 1 bar and flashing. This what’s never happen before. Is there a way to reset it or is this a proplem that the dealership needs to looks at?
    (I had an oil change on Friday, not sure if this could have affected anything. I also have 104,665 on the odometer, if this helps.)

    I forgot to add that I did pull over and restarted it, and it didn’t reset it.
