That's why American GM vehicles don't give you a DTE when you get below a certain fuel level. It will just say "Fill gas tank" or something like that. I forget exactly what it says.
I've gotten down to 8 miles once, had no issues, but I've never had it run out when DTE said 30+ miles. Remember that it's based on your past 20 minutes(?) of driving style. So if you averaged 20 mpg in the last 20 minutes it calculates based on that.
You are cutting it close so I would fill up sooner, possibly for your own safety.
