2015 Camry low-fuel warning when tank is full

I'm renting a 2015 Camry from a major airport. A nice SE with leather.
36 hours into my rental period I noticed the fuel reading on empty with a yellow warning light and guage cluster message "low fuel". I was baffled, I was almost certain they gave me a full tank with the car.
Went to fuel up and indeed noticed the tank only took 1/2 gallon. Still, the low fuel warnings appear.
Did some research on the web and some people with this problem said just drive over some sharp bumps and it may dislodge a stick sensor. Didn't help.
While the natural thing to do is simple exchange the car (indeed it's a rental), it's a hastle for me to do so and I'm unlikely to get as nice of a car like the Camry SE which also gets good fuel economy (in the full sized class).
So just wondering if there is anything easy I can try to fix this issue (unlikely, but it doesn't hurt to ask) thanks.
