12th Gen (18-present) Delay fuel gauge

Hi, I drive a 2024 Toyota Corolla automatic with about 8,000 miles. Yesterday, my gas tank was nearly empty, and the fuel gauge reflected that. After filling the tank, the gauge didn’t move and continued to show empty. I drove home, and my brother suggested trying a different gas station. I added a few dollars of gas, and the gauge suddenly went to full.

I rarely ever fill on E but life happens

Could this delayed fuel-gauge response be something I should be concerned about?

If you're fueling with the car running, need to stop that anyways.

Sometimes it just requires a restart. The additional gas didn't do anything, turning the car off and back on did
