Our gas gauges suck for accuracy. Fill the tank, trip the odometer, drive for a while, fill the tank, and report back with how many miles you drove on how many gallons. Also, are you getting any gas smells?

If you smell gas where is it coming from? Under the hood? Out the tail pipe? You could have a hose leaking under the hood, check the clamps on the fuel filter and fuel rail, our on the tank itself

Have you checked for a leaky injector or an air leak in one of the vacuum hoses?

Or the infamous leaking gas tank vent hose? Fill it up and park it nose up on a hill, that's how I found my tank leak!
