| When filling fuel tank, the pump kicked off prior to a full tank as displayed by digital fuel gauge (just under full). i drove 25 miles and fuel gauge then showed between full and 3/4 tank. there seems to be an inaccuracy with the calibration of the gauge and/or amount of fuel that can be put into tank, with respect to tank capacity, before pump kick off. *tr | |||

| I've been having an issue with my gas tank since i've owned the car since oct 2012. when i fill up, the car sometimes fills all the way on the gauge, sometimes it doesn't. if it does it drops from full to half a quarter by 10-20 miles. also, ive never been able to fill up to around 16 gallons. the car is supposed to have a 16.5 gallon fuel tank. i run the car to approx 12 miles left, till the warning light comes on and i can only get roughly 12 gallons in the tank. either the tank that was installed is wrong or the computer gauge is off. i'm only able to drive about 315 on a full tank. that is not right for a car that's supposed to be a 27-37mpg car. which i only get about 24-26mpg since i've owned the car. i do a mix of highway and city driving, mostly highway averaging 45mph driving. i've told brien ford in everett of this issue but they wont look at it since it hasn't been recognized by ford. there's a really big response to this issue on many forums. i follow the most popular for fusions at http://www.fordfusionforum.com/topic/8957-2013-fusion-fuel-tank-filling-issues/. the dealer told me i would have to pay to have them research it when is a horrible thing to do, when i know there's an issue. when i'm only able to get about 12 gallons in the tank. the fusion hybrid se has a 13.5 gallon tank, i think the tanks got installed incorrectly, and me along with many others got the hybrid tank instead of the normal 16.5 gallon tank. | |||

| The ford fusion fuel tank in my 2.0 ecoboost engine does not fill all the way. it is documented as a 16.5 gallon tank, however even running to empty i am only able to fill 12-13 gallons. to me, it is unacceptable to have a 3-4 gallon reserve. i am not sure if it's the tank itself, or if it's faulty hardware causing vapor to be trapped and the system thinking it's full when it is in fact not. this may not be a safety issue, but is an issue if you are thinking you have more gas than you actually do. | |||
