Chevrolet 2009 Malibu Automobile User Manual


 
Here are four things that some owners ask about.
These are normal and do not indicate a problem with
the fuel gage:
At the service station, the gas pump shuts off
before the gage reads full.
It takes a little more or less fuel to fill up than the
gage indicated. For example, the gage may have
indicated the fuel tank was half full, but it actually
took a little more or less than half the fuel tank’s
capacity to fill it.
The indicator moves a little while turning a corner or
speeding up.
The gage goes back to empty when the ignition is
turned off.
