Description of the problem	Like the other posted complaints, my 2009 santa fe is having fuel gauge issues. It never shows the correct level. I changed the fuel cap but this did nothing to solve the problem. My check engine light comes on because of this problem. The readout comes back: "fuel level sensor". This can be a dangerous situation and will prevent me from passing a state inspection. I use my trip odometer to gauge where i am with fuel tank level. I have to set my trip to zero at every fill-up. At 144 miles i know i'm at 1/2 a tank roughly. This is an issue that hyundai is refusing to admit to so they can save money. Maybe this isn't an air bag, but, if i loan my car to my daughter and she runs out of fuel on a highway...... I don't want to think about it. Force hyundai to fix this!
