Hi, for some reason my gas light is always on & its always on empty even when I know I just filled up the gas tank. What should I do? Is this something that can get expensive?

only takes about an hour for the job which will be around $70 in labor costs. as for the part itself, it will be around $160 , so looking at approx. $230 total.
