On a hard turn my tank went from 1/4 to almost empty according to the gas gauge. Next time I started the car it was back to 1/4.

Well,if your gauge went from 15 miles to 55 miles wouldn't that come out to 2gallons of whatever was dumped into it,(est. 17mpg)?Seems you would notice a big diffrence in the engine if it was somthing bad!But just curious,on both readings was the car completly level?
yes.

car was completely level, and not moved or started or anything between readings, temp outside was almost exactly the same as well.

If jellous loosers* applied half their energy and talent into working for themselves instead of destroying what others have, the world would be magnitudes better.
That's easy to say when you're not one of the jealous losers or "Have Nots". I don't think most people realize just how fragile the balance is between the have and have nots in this country. A lot of the Haves here are born into it and didn't work for themselves. Same with the have nots, they are born into poverty and most can't get out no matter how much they work.

Drain or siphon. They didn't put in anything good. Your motor might burn up if sugar. Don't "F" with people on the highway. Lot of aholes out there that do that ****.

Have you even considered this possibility?:
--It said you had 15 miles left, which means that at the driving style of the last half-tank you would go 15 miles on the remaining "non-reserve" fuel. This probably means, through my experience at least, that you had 2-2.5 gallons of gas total in your tank. Maybe when you started the car up in the morning, the sensor recalibrated to take into account the reserve gas (slope on driveway?) and reset to predict a much softer driving style.

I only bring this up because I've had the EXACT same situation happen before, and this was the reason behind it. I had one time where I drove 10-15miles after reaching "0mi to E" because I didn't feel like filling up on the way home, and when I turned the car on in the morning, the needle was out of the red and it said "15mi to E".
