Fuel gauge misreading

I remember reading some threads about the fuel gauge mis-reading when you filled the car up. (i.e. needle not going beyond or up to 'full' marker).

I found out yesterday that there will be a recall on this fairly shortly so it is obviously a common complaint - mine seems to do it intermittently.

was at the dealer yesterday discussing some minor creaks and rattles and mentioned that the gauge was not giving a proper 'full' reading every time and he said 'Ah yes - there will be a recall about that problem - quite a few cars seem to have it.'
