Default Possible Fuel Guage Issue?

I received a notification that I was nearly out of fuel, so doing the responsible thing I pulled into a gas station to fuel up. Pumping away the nozzle "clicked" a little sooner than I anticipated. I said to myself, "hmm, that's strange", as I had only put 11 gallons in so far. I figured it for a fluke and proceeded to pump on when much to my dismay gas began to spew from the spout and dribble down the side of my car! WTF??

I climbed in, cranked her up....and she registered just under 3/4 tank of fuel!

What gives? Have any of you experienced this, and if so, what was it? I'm thinking my fuel gauge sensor is faulty.
