I had my car taken in for this exact same thing when i first got it. I was advised they are all like that, its a design flaw where light doesn't reach the entire 260 reading. They are the same on all my crossfires. As for the red E bar light on the gas gauge; ITS NOT DESIGNED TO LIGHT UP. That's why you have a YELLOW LOW FUEL WARNING LIGHT ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER THAT ILLUMINATES WHEN THE FUEL REACHES THE RESERVE.
