I have a 2003 Mercury Sable wagon VIN [xxx]. it's suppose to have an 18 gallon gas tank. I can never get more than 13 gallons in and the gauge never shows full. The dealer had the car 4 days but did nothing. I can travel 220-230 miles before having to refill. I fill up when the low tank light comes on. They say they are looking into the situation. This is a dangerous situation as on the open road a gas station may not be available leaving a driver stranded in unsafe areas. I brought this to their attention within several weeks of purchase which was 7/30/03 and a number of times since. This is hazardous.
