I would say light goes on at 20.gallons and theres 3 gallons left in the 23 gallon tank.  |
 there is about 3 gallons left when the light comes on. The H3 does not have the feature where it tells you how many miles you have left on the fuel you have. 3 gallons is plenty to get to the nearest gas station. I've been in the red many times. never actually stalled it.
When you made that suggestion to onstar what did they say? |

Re: Fuel Indicator ...
My low fuel indicator came on three times with 2.5 gallons remaining each time.

OnStar hasn't responded yet. I reponded to an online survey they sent me yesterday along with the diagnostic report that had e-mailed me. I then sent them an e-mail. Hopefully they'll respond to it at some time.
Hey guys, thanks for your response!!! Sounds like 2.5 -3 gallons is the guideline for the H3. Whew! I'd hate to run out of gas with the Hummer and listen to all the wise cracks as people whizzed by me.

Re: Fuel Indicator ...
My light comes on as soon as it hits the "E"... Where does it tell me how far I have to go. I normally go buy the trip odo reading, when it says 230 miles I know I am low.

It doesn't say .. that's why I had posted the question. Our Jeep tells us, but the H3 doesn't have that feature. So far the guys have said as soon as their low fuel light comes on in the DIC, they have between 2.5 - 3 miles to go before they are running on fumes. See fourfourto's response up above.
