Your display shouldn’t say “…” it should say ZERO MILES or something more clear.

There is the fuel gauge that shows empty and a warning light on the dash. The display shouldn't even factor into this. And I'm almost certain if it said "Your tank is empty, get gas!" it probably wouldn't fully prevent those occurrences.
