Reset Trip Meter on Fill Up anyone?

I enabled the reset trip meter on fill up option. This morning I noticed I had a half tank of gas and my trip meter had reset itself. I'm wondering if maybe a speedbump shook up the gas and it tripped the sensor that detects a tank filling. Enabled the option about a week ago and has only occured once so far.

Has this happened to anyone else yet?

You have 2 trip meters, A and B. Make sure you were checking the one you had setup to reset.

Also, check the Trip Computer in the Nav. You can access it with the voice command "Trip Computer". See if it has also reset.

I don't think going over a bump will reset your trip meter. That is if it was designed correctly.

Yes. Hold down Info key on steering wheel while turning Keyswitch to ON if I remember correctly.
