Gas Tank

I filled my new SC up last week and it said 3/4 full. Then I was driving down the highway and the gas light came on. My question is why would it only fill up to 3/4 of a tank. The gas pump tops off like it's full, but it clearly is not. What's going on?

It sounds like your sending unit is going bad. You should be able to go 350 mi. before refueling(providing your not racing light to light). Sending unit & fuel pump are one unit in the tank. You could replace the whole thing or pick up a salvage yard unit. New unit would run $300.00 plus. Me, I would just keep track of the milage every time you fill up.
