Toyota diagnostic procedure is wrong, and based on full tank of 2020 RAV4 Hybrid. My dealer checked it out and "no problem".
Have contacted Toyota to open a new case.

When new miles to empty was 565 off the lot. Now with fill up only 422-430.
Last fill up I drove 63 miles past :REFUEL" or 0 miles to empty.
Only took 12.05 gallons for a 14.5 gallon tank. Based on my calculations and experience, there are 4 gallons left at REFUEL warning, or 160 miles.
I suspect that the tank level indicator has shifted, since "full" range has decreased significantly. We'll see what Toyota says now, but I think that the gas tank needs to be replaced. Doesn't help that my wife is terrified of a low fuel gauge.

Any other experiences of RAV4 Hybrid drivers continuing past empty, and how far? I'm headed for 80 miles below zero for next fill up.
