    I've never had mine beep at me, but I've had the blinking last bar twice. I don't make it a habit to do that, but I've utilized the "estimated range" in drive info to estimate how much I have left. I try not to let it get <50mi before I fill up.

    The car beeps when the last bar starts flashing. If your radio is on, you can't really hear it... almost worthless, honestly.
    So you're saying you usually put ~ at most 7 gallons in your car at each fill up?

    I have verified that my 2012 does not have the gas light.

    If it beeps mega soft, that would explain it. My hearing isn't the greatest to begin with. With gas, I usually fill up with 6-7 gal at Costco or the base, at most I've done is 8.3 (8.6?) per the gas pump meter. That time I did I was abusing the crap out of EV mode and made it a point to not let the gas get that low again.

    Yeah, you still had ~1 gallon of gas left, but to each their own. :D
