Gas tank gauge reads empty

[Criz90]

Hey guys yesterday I was driving with half a tank of gas then all of a sudden the needle in the gas tank gauge goes down to empty as if the car was off. I know I have gas in the tank so its not empty. Also the display where it normally says how many miles til empty has dashes instead of any numbers indicating mileage. What the hell is going on??

your gas gauge is shot or you may have a bad connection or blown fuse. check your owners manual and check all connections and fuses

still under warranty? take it in to dealership. it may need a new lpfp, the fuel level sensor is part of the in tank fuel pump.
