| Description of the problem | The gas tank of my 2019 toyota rav4 le hybrid will only fill to about 3/4 of a tank. My rav4 has a 14. 5 gallon fuel tank. When i am near zero miles of range remaining, i often get less than 8 gallons at fill up. There is not a problem with the gas gauge. The tank read full only once, when the dealer filled the tank prior to delivery to me. I don't like to drive with less than a 1/4 tank of gas, as gas is used to cool the fuel pump. This results in most fuel stops only accepting between 4 and 6 gallons of gas. I recently took a 3000 mile trip that was 95% highway driving and that was my experience during the trip. |
