What part on the car listed above reads the fuel range and how many miles until empty because mine is currently fluctuating and inaccurate. So, how do I fix this?

This is controlled by the BCM and PCM, I would run a CAN scan to see what codes come up. You can get a CAN scanner (Controller Area Network) which will work on most cars from Amazon.

Here is a video to show you how:

Please let me know what codes so we can fix it.

Thank you, these won't have anything to do with the mileage indicator. Is the code reader you or using a CAN scanner? I would clear the codes to see if they come back.
