full tank of gas=0 mi to empty? WTF

So i filled up the tl yesterday, and the mid was reading 0 miles to empty, plus the fuel light was on, filled up the tank and the fuel level came to F slower than usual but seems to display the correct level, and the fuel light is off, yet the mid continues to read 0 miles to empty...

Anybody know whats wrong/how to fix? This is the first technical glitch ive had with the car: 04 TL 6mt 86k miles
