Vehicle was in motion on a city street when it stalled and even though I depressed the accelerator, vehicle would not move. A message in red appeared stating there was not enough fuel and to go re-fuel, even though the tank was 3/4 full. The energy flow through the battery was 16-19%. I had to shut off the car. Wait. Then, re-start and was able to get home. Problem: 1. The car gas engine did not kick in and the message was to re-fuel (car did not recognize almost full tank of gas). 2.STALLED while in motion. (I am glad this did not happen on the highway). The local dealer has the car now and I am driving a loaner. They have the car since sat April 20,2019.
