HELP! There's a funny light that came on while driving today... - Honda CRZ Forum: Honda CR-Z Hybrid Car Forums

It says something like: "FUEL LEVEL LOW" or something like that. OMFG, what do I do?

It's been so long since I had to pour any of that smelly liquid stuff; oh yeah, right "Gasoline" in that hole in the side of the car. I've driven it over 300 miles on the free tank that came in it.

Just kidding guys. It's just that it's been SO long since I had to stop at one of those stores that sell that "Gasoline" product, I may have to ask for help working the pump!

Maybe I'll take it in to the dealership tomorrow. They promised me a free 2nd tank of gas after having to come back to re-sign new papers with the correct VIN# on them.

Very happy with my CR-Z purchase...as gas prices went up TWICE over the weekend!

hahaha. you had me scared reading the title.

Yea, that was pretty good. Got my attention.

Coming from a Civic Hybrid with a 12gallon tank and almost always getting 400 miles+ to a tank, I am stopping at the station a little more now-a-days. But it is all good, having much more fun...

I had the same reaction the first time the fuel light came on. Oh no! I can't remember what side the fuel door is on! Was grateful for the arrow on the dash.

I had a funny light too "Tighten Gas Cap". Odd because it had been over 90 miles since I filled up. Turned off the car, got out, undid the cap, retightened the cap, restarted the car, and the light went out.

The title got my attention also. Good One !!

I just passed 5000 miles. car is running and looking great.

I just filled up last night for the first time since Feb 5th. Cost me .43 cents more per gal then last time. But I got 40.6 mpg, so can't complain about that, so glad I don't have my Explorer any more!!

Nice to see "that light" come on only every 3 weeks!!!

I know, right?

I just got over 400 miles on my second tank of gas. The dealership put the first 2 tankfulls in for free. Had the car 3 weeks, and just spent less than $40 to fill it up.

I'll see your Ford Explorer and raise you a 2010 Camaro SS--that's what I traded for my CR-Z!
