Default Getting a Christmas tree of lights and warnings on my 2020 Sport 1.5l

With 43 miles to empty my car stopped driving. I got someone to get me some gas and when I started the car these warnings now show up. I completely topped off the car and hasn’t changed anything. Any tips on things I could check myself? Should I just take it somewhere? Can I drive it to a mechanic? How screwed am I?

Low/zero gasoline shouldn't cause all these different systems to detect problems. This is something universal and electrical like low voltage from the battery/alternator or one of the control modules failing taking down the communication network in your car. This isn't mechanical where your engine is failing.

Probably best to take it to a shop. The car may be in limp mode, where you can get past second gear, so you can't take it on the interstate. Find a low speed route to a shop.

I took it and got the battery tested. It passed the load test and when I fired my car up to leave all the warnings were gone. I’ll still take it to the dealer. thanks you!
