Fuel Gauge (Dots) Problems?

my first dot is always out after a fill up but when I shut it down then drive later it'll typically light up.

Tony told me it shows my car has over a quarter tank then they all disappeared after idling for a while. That's before tt.

yea mine only does it on the first dot and once in a blue moon the first 2 will be missing when I fill up. but most times it's just driving home, shut down, turn on, and they are back on.

It's just annoying. The last thing I wanna do while driving is guessing how much gas I have in the car.

based mine only seeming to be not lit it doesn't scare me. it's more of the lights malfunctioning at the top. the bottom hasn't misled me yet as to whats left. but I will say I never let it get below a 1/4 before I fill it back up.
