Description of the problem	I have 2009 santa fe. This happened first time in february 2014 that i was filling gas (i always do full) and as i started leaving the gas station my fuel gauge showed empty. I went back to the gas station and ask the attendant that there is a mistake, my tank is not full it is empty. But i was wrong, because he told me there is no way the pump machine will lie and he fills 100s of vehicle per day from each of his machine. Just to double check, the next filling i used a different gas station and it happened again. Now this has become routine and since my last two visit at pump, even the check engine light is coming on now. I have to wait few days and mileage to put on that the check engine will go off but the fuel gauge will still show less than half the tank. At this moment, i know my car and can predict with some degree of certainty about the mileage my car will provide but as the car ages and other things in the engine ages, it will become more difficult to predict the gas level. So i might be in trouble stranded on highway or in city during rush hour. Also i found online that this is not just my problem, many of other santa fe had similar issues. Therefore, i thought i should also share my experience here.
