Hi,
The fuel level sensor on this vehicle is in the fuel tank and part of the pump module. I suspect that since it isn't accurate, the float may be stuck or the rheostat has failed. The only way to be sure is to remove it. I attached a pic of it.
To remove it and inspect. Here are the directions for replacing it. The attached pics correlate with the directions.
