2007 NISSAN QUEST Fuel/propulsion System Problems

Check engine light came on and says fuel level sensor circuit a low

1. Fuel Gauge- the fuel Hague is incorrect. I suspect somewhere between 1/2 tank and 3/8 tank will actually be an empty tank. I was almost left stranded when I could make it to the next service station. The car performed slow and the car came to a slow stop. No fuel indicator light came on. 2. My steering wheel has been very difficult to turn. Suddenly the power steering tank requires daily service. There is a rattling noise that gets a little better when I pour power steering fluid. I am unable to make safe turns due to the steering wheel no moving at it’s normal rate. Turning at intersections is the worst as I sometimes have to try several attempts. I end up having to take wide turns and that is not always safe in our narrow streets. There is no indicator light related to this concern.

FUEL GAUGE SENSOR WAS BROUGHT IN FOR RECALL BUT ISSUE STILL EXISTS. DEALER CLAIMS I NEED TO PAY TO DETERMINE IF IT IS STILL THE SAME PROBLEM. DEALER ALSO CONFIRMED THEY DO NOT VERIFY THE RECALL WORK DONE WAS SUCCESSFUL. ALL THEY ARE REQUIRED TO DO IS "PUT IN THE NEW PARTS". WHEN I FILL THE TANK WITHIN 5 MINS. IT GOES BACK TO EMPTY ON THE GAS GAUGE. THE RECALL DID NOTHING TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

INACCURATE FUEL GAUGE. WHEN GAUGE SHOWS 1/4 TANK RAN OUT GAS.

THE FUEL GUAGE IS MALFUNCTIONING. I HAVE RUN OUT OF GAS WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. I HAVE REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP AND FUEL SENSOR AND THE ISSUE IS STILL PRESENT. THE VEHICLE RAN OUT OF GAS IN MOTION ON A BUSY STREET, THEN ON A BUSY EXIT RAMP, ONCE ON INTERSTATE 695 IN BALTIMORE. THE VEHICLE WAS NEARLY HIT BY TRAFFIC BEHIND THE VEHICLE WHEN IT RAN OUT OF GAS DUE TO A FAULTY FUEL GAUGE.

Mileage: 168,000

FUEL GAUGE GOES FROM FULL TO EMPTY WHEN IT'S ALMOST FULL, NISSAN DID A FUEL SENDER CAMPAIGN REPAIR BUT IT DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM...THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I START THE CAR AND DRIVE JUST A MILE OR SO

Mileage: 95,000

MY VAN FIRST CUTS OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WHILE MY PREGNANT WIFE WAS DRIVING. EVEN THOUGH GAUGE INDICATES THAT THE FUEL WAS FULL. THEN IT CUTS OFF AGAIN AFTER THE SUPPOSED FIX BY THE DEALERSHIP. NISSAN HAD PREVIOUSLY ISSUED CAMPAIGN ID #: P5318 FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT AS ALL OTHER CUSTOMERS WOULD NOTE, THIS DOESN'T FIX THE PROBLEM EVEN AFTER TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. WE NEED NISSAN TO LOOK INTO THIS ASAP. TOOK IT TO THE FIRST DEALERSHIP WHERE IT SPEND TWO AND HALF WEEKS AND THEY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. THE SECOND DEALERSHIP NOW SAYS I NEED TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE COMPUTER AND REPROGRAM WHICH COSTS THOUSAND OF DOLLARS. THIS IS RIDICULOUS!

Mileage: 133,000

1.VECHICLE RUN OUT OF GAS EVEN THOUGH IT SHOWED IT HAD 1/4 TANK AND DISPLAYED 24 MILES BEFORE EMPTY. WAS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF HIGH SPEED TRAFFIC WITHOUT ANY WARNING. 2. VECHICLE VIBRATES WHEN DRIVING 40 MILES SEEM TO BE DEFECTIVE TRANSMITION. 3.VECHICLE AS LOUD NOISE COMING FROM TIMING CHAIN AREA . ACCORDING TO MECHANIC THIS IS A COSTLY AND KNOWN ISSUE WITH NISSANS. WHERE TIMING CHAIN GUIDE AS PERMATURE WARE CAUSING TIME CHAIN TO BECOME LOOSE AND CUASE NOISE COULD BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE.

Mileage: 98,013

MY FUEL GAUGE WOULD SAY THAT I HAD OVER A QUARTER TANK OF GAS AND OUT OF NOWHERE MY VAN WOULD SHUT DOWN. NO WARNING, NO ANYTHING. THIS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES. I GOT A RECALL LETTER IN THE MAIL ABOUT MY FUEL SENSOR AND TO KEEP A HALF A TANK IN IT UNTIL I COULD GET IT FIXED. I TOOK MY VAN TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED THE FUEL AMP METER (PART NO. 24819-ZM70A). I WAS TOLD THAT EVERYTHING WAS GOOD, BUT NOT EVEN TWO DAYS LATER AT A QUARTER OF A TANK OF GAS MY VAN SHUT DOWN WITH NO WARNING. I DIDN'T EVEN HAVE POWER STEERING TO HELP ME GUIDE MY VEHICLE SAFELY TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. MY VAN STARTED IDLING ROUGHLY AND NOT ACTING LIKE IT HAD BEFORE I TOOK IT IN FOR THE RECALL. I TOOK THE VAN BACK UP TO THE DEALERSHIP THAT FIXED MY RECALL AND THEY STATED THAT THE SENSOR IS FINE AND NOW I HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE FUEL PUMP SENDING UNIT. THE ENTIRE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN RECTIFIED. NOW BEING TOLD TO SPEND $1000 DOLLARS ON A PART TO FIX THE SAME PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN QUEST. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYED THAT THE FUEL LEVEL WAS EMPTY AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE WOULD FLUCTUATE FROM FULL TO EMPTY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS REPAIRED THROUGH A MANUFACTURER'S SATISFACTION CAMPAIGN; HOWEVER, THE REMEDY FAILED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL PUMP FAILED AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 102,000.

Mileage: 102,000

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS 2007 NISSAN QUEST. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE WAS PROVIDING INCORRECT READING LEVELS. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED UNDER A MANUFACTURER CUSTOMER SATISFACTION CAMPAIGN FOR THE FUEL LEVEL GAUGE SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 83,000.

I RAN OUT OF GAS ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS. BOTH TIMES I THOUGHT I HAD PLENTY OF GAS DUE TO WHAT THE GAUGE SAID. THE FIRST TIME, I HAD MY 2 KIDS WITH ME AND IT RAN OUT AS I WAS GOING AROUND AN UNFAMILIAR CURVE IN THE INTERSTATE. THE VAN BECAME VERY HARD TO STEER. LUCKY FOR ME I WAS IN A LANE NEXT TO A SHOULDER SO I WAS ABLE TO FIGHT IT OFF OF THE ROAD. IT WAS VERY HARD TO STOP AT THAT POINT. THE SECOND TIME, I HAD 7 PEOPLE IN THE CAR INCLUDING MY 2 KIDS AND 4 OF THEIR YOUNG FRIENDS. THIS TIME IT RAN OUT JUST AS I CAME TO A CURVE ON A ROAD WHERE PEOPLE TEND TO SPEED. I DID NOT HAVE THE STRENGTH TO KEEP THE VAN FROM CROSSING INTO THE ONCOMING LANE, BUT LUCKY FOR US, NOBODY WAS IN THE OTHER LANE AT THAT TIME. I WAS ABLE TO COAST OFF OF THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE ROAD. BOTH TIMES I MISSED VERY IMPORTANT MEETINGS BUT WAS THANKFUL TO BE ALIVE. I HAVE SINCE LEARNED TO RESET MY MILEAGE COUNTER WHEN I FILL UP AND WATCH TO MAKE SURE I DON'T PUSH IT TO FAR, BUT ALWAYS AFRAID I MAY GUESS INCORRECTLY. I AM PROBABLY FILLING UP AT 1/2 TANK FOR FEAR OF STALLING AGAIN WITH MY KIDS IN THE VAN. AFTER THE FIRST TIME, I THOUGHT I RECEIVED A NOTICE ABOUT A PROBLEM WITH THE GAUGE. I HAD MY VAN IN FOR SERVICE AT THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALER AND ASKED THEM ABOUT IT. THEY LOOKED IT UP AND SAID THEY DID NOT SEE ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THAT WAS AROUND 2015/03. I AM TIRED OF CONSTANTLY FILLING UP, SO I AM LOOKING INTO HOW TO GET IT FIXED. THAT IS HOW I FOUND OUT ABOUT ALL THE OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE FAULTY GAUGE ISSUE.

Mileage: 130,000

WE TOOK OUR 2007 NISSAN QUEST IN FOR THE RECALL TO REPAIR OUR FAULTY FUEL GAUGE READING ON 10/24/15 AND NISSAN HAD OUR VAN UNTIL 11/13/15 AND FAILED TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. CODE P0462 FOR THE "FUEL LEVEL SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW INPUT" IS STILL ACTIVE AN.D OUR FUEL GAUGE STILL DOES NOT WORK. NISSAN CLAIMS TO HAVE REPLACED THE PART STIPULATED IN THE RECALL, BUT REPLACING THAT PART FAILED TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. AFTER OUR QUEST SPENT 21 DAYS AT NISSAN TO HAVE OUR FUEL GAUGE RECALL FIXED WE WERE INFORMED WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. WE TOOK OUR QUEST BACK TO NISSAN ON 12/28/15 TO HAVE THE ISSUE OF THE FAULTY FUEL GAUGE RESOLVED. WE WERE TOLD TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP TO MAKE THE FUEL GAUGE WORK. THE COST OF THE FUEL PUMP IS OVER $500. AND DOES NOT INCLUDE LABOR CHARGES. AFTER NISSAN REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP OUR FUEL GAUGE STILL DOES NOT WORK, AND WE RUN THE RISK OF RUNNING OUT OF FUEL. NOW WE ARE TOLD WE MUST REPLACE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE COST OF THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IS OVER $300. PLUS $35. TO PROGRAM IT, AND DOES NOT INCLUDE LABOR CHARGES. WHY SHOULD WE BE RESPONSIBLE TO PAY OVER $1,000. TO HAVE AN ISSUE FIXED THAT IS COVERED BY A RECALL? WHY SHOULD I PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF A FUEL PUMP IF THE FUEL PUMP DID NOT RESOLVE THE FAULTY FUEL GAUGE READING? I WOULD LIKE TO GOVERNMENT TO INVESTIGATE WHY NISSAN IS NOT RESOLVING PROBLEMS COVERED BY A GOVERNMENT RECALL.

THE FUEL GAUGE MARKED 1/4 TANK FULL BUT WAS ACTUALLY EMPTY.

Mileage: 88,000

THIS IS PROBABLY THE 4TH TIME I HAVE STALLED OUT I LOOSE POWER STEERING WHEN CAR STALLS AND I WAS DRIVING IN A LOT OF TRAFFIC. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS ON THE FREE WAY. GAS GAUGE SHOWS I HAVE OVER A QUARTER OF A TANK THE DISTANCE TO EMPTY SHOWS THAT I HAVE ANY WHERE FROM 18-70 MILES LEFT AND I STALL OUT. AFTER PUTTING GAS IN THE TANK THE CAR FUNCTIONS AGAIN. THERE IS NO ILLUMINATED LIGHT, NO NOTIFICATION IN THE FORM OF A SOUND OR DING. I WATCH MY MILES BUT WHEN YOU VARY BETWEEN IN TOWN AND HIGHWAY MILES THEY ARE NOT ALWAYS THE SAME. I HAVE DRIVEN 400 MILES BEFORE NEEDING TO FILL UP AND 283 MILES ON THE ODOMETER WHEN TANK HAS EMPTIED AND STALLED OUT. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR 19 YEARS WITHOUT EVER RUNNING OUT OF GAS IN AT LEAST 14 OTHER VEHICLES, AND I HAVE RUN OUT 4 TIMES BECAUSE OF THIS FAULTY GAUGE IN THE NISSAN QUEST. VERY FRUSTRATING!!!

Mileage: 138,000

MY FUEL GAUGE SHOWED ABOUT A QUARTER TANK OF GAS AND I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 35 MPH WHEN IT SUDDENLY STALLED. LUCKILY THERE WERE NO CARS BEHIND ME AND I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SHOULDER. I GOT THE CAR TOWED TO THE SHOP . THERE WERE CO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR ANY CODES. THE SHOP AFTER TESTING THE FUEL PUMP AND OTHER THINGS FIGURED OUT IS WAS EMPTY ON GAS. ONCE WE PUT GAS, IT WAS GOOD TO GO. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. WHAT IF IT HAPPENS ON A BUSY HIGHWAY WHERE I AM NOT ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SHOULDER. I SEE THAT THERE HAS BEEN SIMILAR COMPLAINTS, BUT THERE IS NO RE-CALL. PLEASE RE-OPEN THE CASE.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON DECEMBER 1, 2012, I CAME TO A STOP AT THE RED LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGED, I PUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL AND IT MOVED SLIGHTLY THEN JUST COASTED, (THROUGH THE LIGHT) AND CAME TO A STOP IN THE RIGHT TURN LANE OF THE PARKING LOT. FORTUNATELY, THERE WERE ONLY A FEW CARS BEHIND ME AND I MADE IT THROUGH THE INTERSECTION. I TRIED TO START THE VEHICLE BUT TO NO AVAIL. I CALLED A TOW TRUCK AND THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP TO LET THEM KNOW I WAS ON THE WAY. WHEN THE DRIVER ARRIVED, HE PUT MY VEHICLE ON THE TOW TRUCK AND DROVE TO THE KROGER GAS ISLAND IN THE PARKING LOT. HE PUT $5 IN THE TANK BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. AT THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP I EXPLAINED WHAT HAPPENED. THE INVOICE READS: CUSTOMER STATES THE CAR STALLED OUT CAUSE: GAS GAUGE SHORTED OUT AND STUCK ON 1 (THAT'S ALL THAT PRINTED). I HAD 1/2 TANK OF GAS WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I KEEP TRACK OF MILEAGE AND FILL-UPS. IT TOOK MORE DAYS TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM THAN INITIALLY DISCUSSED. THEY WOULD CALL AND LET US KNOW THAT SOMETHING DIDN'T WORK WHEN PROVIDING A STATUS UPDATE. FINALLY THEY TOLD US THEY BELIEVE THE PROBLEM TO BE FIXED. WE PICKED UP MY VEHICLE ON DECEMBER 6, 2012, AND PAID OVER $775 FOR THE REPAIRS. I HAVE TRIED TO CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP (LEFT VOICE MAIL, LEFT MESSAGE WITH PERSON, AND SENT EMAIL) BUT HAVEN'T HEARD BACK YET. I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM I EXPERIENCED IS THE SAME AS THE NOTIFICATION/ RECALL CAMPAIGN AND 1) MY VEHICLE SHOULD BE REVIEWED TO MAKE SURE THE PROBLEM IS 'CORRECTED' AND 2) A FULL REFUND TO BE MADE AS THIS INCIDENT IS IN LINE WITH THE DOCUMENTED INFORMATION IN THE RECALL CAMPAIGN. NISSAN HAS THE PAPERWORK TO GO BACK AND CONFIRM THIS REPAIR. THE NHRTA ACTION NUMBER I FOUND IS PE14012. (MODEL YEARS 2007-2009)

Mileage: 116,372

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ENGINE SUDDENLY CUT OFF AND STOPPED RUNNING. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO NISSAN DEALER AND WAS TOLD FUEL PUMP HAD TO BE REPLACED COSTING $1163.31. THEN ON DECEMBER 15, 2014 WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE STALLED. HAD FUEL DELIVERED AND STARTED RIGHT UP, THE FUEL GAUGE INDICATED 1/4 TANK LEFT WHEN IT STALLED. ONCE FILLED I MONITORED USAGE AND CONCLUDED THE GAUGE IS OFF BY 1/4 TANK OR MORE. TRIED TO HAVE THIS COVERED AS PART OF THE PERVIOUS REPAIR BUT THEY COULD NOT COMMIT THAT THIS WAS PART OF THE PREVIOUS REPAIR. THEN IN JANUARY I RECEIVED NOTICE OF THE FUEL GAUGE RECALL PE14012. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALER THEY INDICATED MY VEHICLE VIN WAS NOT SHOWN TO HAVE A PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH I HAVE EXACTLY THE DESCRIBED PROBLEM. I HAVE JUST RECEIVED NOTICE THAT THIS NOW A KNOWN PROBLEM AND TO CALL THE DEALER TO SCHEDULE FUEL GAUGE REPAIR. HOW MANY OTHERS HAVE HAD A SIMILAR FAILURE WHICH I BELIEVE IS AN EXTENDED PART OF THIS RECALL. THE INITIAL REPAIR SHOULD BE PART OF THIS RECALL AND ANY CHARGED PAID FOR THIS SHOULD BE REFUNDED.

Mileage: 137,000

I WAS DRIVING FROM PEKIN TO WORK IN PEORIA AND NOTICED THAT I HAD A LITTLE LESS THAN 1/4 TANK OF FUEL SO I FIGURED I WOULD BE ABLE TO GET GAS ON THE WAY HOME. WHEN I CHECKED THE TRIP GAGE IT SAID THAT I HAD 8 MILES TO GO BEFORE I RAN OUT OF GAS. THAT IS A HUGE DIFFERENCE THAN WHAT MY GAS GAUGE SAID. I STOPPED AND GOT GAS IMMEDIATELY AND WHILE DOING SO I NOTICED THAT IT TOOK 17 GALLONS OF GAS. IF IT HAD ACTUALLY HAD A 1/4 TANK IN IT THERE IS NO WAY THAT I SHOULD BE ABLE TO PUT 17 GALLONS OF GAS IN AN 18 GALLON TANK. I HAVE CALLED MY NISSAN DEALERSHIP ABOUT IT AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO RECOLLECTION OF THIS BEING AN ISSUE. THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME IT HAS HAPPENED BUT I CANNOT REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED. SINCE THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING I HAVE BEEN KEEPING TRACK OF MY MILEAGE AND FILLING UP ACCORDING TO MY MILEAGE RECORDS. I HOPE THIS CAN GET FIXED SOON I AM A MOTHER AND THE LAST THING I WOULD WANT TO HAPPEN IS TO GET STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH MY BABY IN THE CAR BECAUSE OF AN ERROR THAT WASN'T MY FAULT.

Mileage: 174,000

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT APPROXIMATELY 35MPH THE ENGINE SUDDENLY STOPPED RUNNING AND THE VEHICLE DRIFTED TO A STOP. ALL ATTEMPTS T RESTART THE VEHICLE FAILED. THE GAS GAUGE INDICATED THAT THE FUEL TANK HAD APPROXIMATELY 1/3 OF A TANK OF GAS REMAINING. I SPENT JUST A FEW MINUTE SEARCHING THE INTERNET FOR PEOPLE HAVING SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL (2007 NISSAN QUEST). THE SEARCH UNCOVERED LOTS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT FAULTY GAS GAUGES INDICATING IMPROPER FUEL LEVELS. SO I POURED A FEW GALLONS OF GAS INTO THE FUEL SYSTEM AND THE VEHICLE STARTED. I HAVE SINCE HAD THE VEHICLE QUIT RUNNING 2 MORE TIMES UNDER SIMILAR CIRCUMSTANCES. EACH TIME MORE FUEL IS ADDED AND THE VEHICLE STARTS WITH NO TROUBLE.

Mileage: 150,000

SAME AS MOST OTHERS ON HERE, WE WERE DRIVING AND THE VEHICLE RAN OUT OF GAS. GAS GAUGE READ JUST OVER QUARTER OF A TANK, YET WAS ACTUALLY EMPTY. WE DO OUR BEST TO GET IT FILLED UP AT A HALF TANK, BUT THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED IN A YEAR AND A HALF. WE'VE GOTTEN TWO LETTERS FROM NISSAN INFORMING US OF THE ISSUE, BUT IT'S STARTING TO APPEAR AS THOUGH NOTHING IS GOING TO BE DONE TO FIX THIS SAFETY ISSUE. HOPEFULLY SOMEONE DOESN'T HAVE TO DIE TO GET THEM TO STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. OBVIOUSLY THERE'S A DEFECT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN QUEST. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN IN FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND THE RESULT WAS A POSSIBLE MISALIGNED CRANK POSITION SENSOR. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: PE14012 (FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED, BUT THE CONTACT WAS NOT OFFERED A REMEDY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000.

THE GAS GAUGE IS SAYING THAT THERE IS OVER A QUARTER OF A TANK AND THE VEHICLE RUNS OUT OF GAS. THIS WAS HAPPENING OCCASIONALLY. NOW, IT IS HAPPENING MORE AND MORE. NOW, I FEEL THAT I MUST FILL UP EVERY FEW DAYS SO I AM NOT LEFT STRANDED AGAIN. FIRST TIME, CLOSE TO HOME. SECOND TIME ON MY WAY TO WORK ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY (VERY SCARY). THIRD TIME, CLOSE TO HOME AGAIN. I WAS TOLD THAT A RECALL WAS TO HAPPEN OVER THE SUMMER OF 2015 BUT CAN NOT FIND ANY INFORMATION ABOUT IT.

Mileage: 150,010

VEHICLE STALLED ON MORNING DRIVE TO WORK. OVER 1/4 TANK OF GAS ACCORDING TO GAS GAUGE. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO AUTO REPAIR WHERE THEY DETERMINED IT WAS A FAILED FUEL PUMP. WHEN THE REMOVED THE GAS TANK TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP THE MECHANIC SAID THERE WAS VERY LITTLE GAS IN THE TANK. THEY REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP AND CHARGED ME $736.00. WHEN THEY TESTED THE ORIGINAL FUEL PUMP, IT OPERATED BELOW THE MANUFACTURERS SPECIFICATIONS. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT TRYING TO RESTART THE ENGINE WITH LITTLE GAS IN THE TANK (FAULTY GAS GAUGE) CAUSED THE ORIGINAL FUEL PUMP TO OVERHEAT.

Mileage: 79,000

FIRST OF ALL, THIS IS RELATED TO NHTSA ACTION NUMBER PE14012. I JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE WITH NISSAN AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS NO PROGRAM OR FIX AVAILABLE FOR THE PROBLEM. YOU CLOSED THIS INVESTIGATION ON JANUARY 13, 2015 BASED ON NISSAN TELLING THE NHTSA THAT THEY WERE GOING TO DO SOMETHING TO RECTIFY THE ISSUE. IT IS NOW JULY 15, 2015, 4 MONTHS AFTER I WAS TOLD BY NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS THAT THEY WOULD HAVE A FIX BY JULY. I BELIEVE THAT NISSAN LIED TO YOU TO GET YOU OFF THEIR BACKS. THEIR FIX SO FAR IS TO TELL ME THAT I NEED TO FILL UP THE GAS TANK WHEN IT IS HALF FULL.... IN A DAY AND AGE WHEN EVERY CAR HAS A RED LIGHT THAT COMES ON, THIS IS RIDICULOUS FOR ME TO HAVE TO WATCH MY GAS GAUGE OR MILEAGE IN ORDER NOT TO RUN OUT OF GAS WHEN AT FULL SPEED! THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I HAD THE VEHICLE STOP ON MY IN THE MIDDLE OF A VERY BUSY INTERSECTION... OTHER CARS HAD TO SLAM ON BRAKES AND SINCE I WAS MAKING A TURN IN A SPACE OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC... THEY HAD TO SWERVE TO AVOID ME! MY WIFE ALSO HAD IT CUT OUT ON HER, BUT FORTUNATELY WAS JUST PULLING INTO A STATION TO FILL UP. PLEASE REOPEN THIS INVESTIGATION TO PUT NISSAN ON NOTICE. THEY ARE DOING NOTHING. I EVEN OFFERED TO MY DEALERSHIP TO PAY TO HAVE THIS FIXED AND THEY COULDN'T DO IT BECAUSE THERE AREN'T PARTS AVAILABLE. NISSAN LIED TO YOU. GET 'EM! I AM GOING TO SEND A COPY OF THIS TO SENATOR JOHNNY ISAKSON AND CONGRESSMEN ROB WOODALL, TOM PRICE, LYNN WESTMORELAND, JODY HICE, DOUG COLLINS, BARRY LOUDERMILK, DAVID SCOTT, AUSTIN SCOTT AND TOM GRAVES. ALL OF WHOM ARE PERSONAL FRIENDS OF MINE. THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN QUEST. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYED AN INCORRECT READING INDICATING THAT THE FUEL TANK WAS FULL WHEN IT WAS REALLY EMPTY. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS REFUELED AND RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 108,000.

NOT SURE OF THE MILAGE IT'S BEEN HAPPENING SINCE BEFORE GETTING A NOTICE FROM NISSAN IN JAN 2015..... WE THEN WENT AND HAD THE VIN SCANNED AT A NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT WQSN'T PART OF THE ISSUE YET WE HAVE THE ISSUE OCCURING AND GOT THE NOTICE IN THE MAIL FROM NISSAN. THEIR ADVICE OF KEEPING IT AT 1/2 A TANK DOESNT WORK. IT'S BEEN AT A FULL TANK AND GAUGE STILL READ AS E WITH THE LIGHT ON. NISSAN NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUTABLE AND FIX THIS ISSUE. IT ALSO MAKES THE VEHICALE THROW A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WHICH WILL MAKE THE CAR FAIL SMOG.

TOOK THE CAR IN FOR THE YEARLY EMISSION TEST AND IT DID NOT PASS. IT STATES CODE P0462. HAD THE NISSAN DEALER ALSO CHECK THE VEHICLE AND IT ALSO STATES THAT THE FUEL GAUGE IS NOT WORKING. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. NISSAN IS NOT RETURNING BACK MY CALLS AND I RECEIVED A POSSIBLE RECALL NOTICED ON JANUARY 2015. I AM UP FOR THE EMISSION TEST AGAIN AND NEED TO GET THIS FIXED SO IT CAN PASS IT. MY PLATES WILL BE SUSPENDED IF IT DOES NOT PASS. ALSO WHEN I FILL UP IT THE FUEL GAUGE DOESN'T MOVE UP TO FULL. I AM AFRAID I MIGHT RUN OUT OF GAS SO I AM CONSISTENTLY PUTTING GAS.... UPDATED 09/03/15 *BF

CAR DID NOT START WHEN SHOWING 1/4 TANK LEFT. IT WAS LATE AT NIGHT AND WE FIGURED THE FUEL PUMP WAS BAD, SO WE TOWED IT HOME. AS A LAST RESORT BEFORE BRINGING IT INTO THE SHOP, WE POURED 1 GALLON OF GAS INTO IT THE NEXT MORNING AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. 2ND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED.

WHEN I FILL UP THE FUEL TANK THE FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT MOVE FROM END (E) TO FULL (F) EVEN AFTER FILLING UP THE COMPLETE TANK. IT TAKES UP TO 20 TO 25 MINUTES OF DRIVING BEFORE THE FUEL GAUGE GETS TO FULL (F) POSITION.

VEHICLE WAS WAS SHOWING A QUARTER TANK OF GAS WHILE DRIVING THEN STARTED SPUTTERING AROUND AND DIED.

Mileage: 12,500

THE VEHICLE STALLED OUT AND WOULD NOT RESTART. THE FUEL GAUGE READ 1/4 OF A TANK BUT THE VEHICLE ACTED LIKE IT WAS OUT OF GAS. WE PUT GAS IN THE VEHICLE AND IT STARTED. WE WERE INFORMED THERE WAS AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE FUEL GAUGE PROBLEM BUT NO SOLUTION. WHEN I LOOKED IT UP ONLINE IT SAYS INVESTIGATION IS CLOSED. WE HAVE BEEN TOLD TO KEEP OUR VEHICLE OVER A 1/2 OF A TANK AT ALL TIMES BUT THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR SEVERAL MONTHS AND STILL NO RESOLUTION! I AM NOT HAPPY WITH NISSAN AND THIS IS THE SECOND PROBLEM THAT NISSAN HAS NOT STOOD BEHIND AND NO RECALL AT THIS TIME!

MY GAS GAUGE SHOWED 1/4 TANK. THIS WAS THE 3RD TIME IN 2 MONTHS THAT I RAN OUT OF GAS WHEN MY GAUGE STILL SHOWED PLENTY OF GAS. THE FIRST TIME, I WAS TOWED TO A REPAIR STATION , ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT I WAS SIMPLY OUT OF GAS. THIS LAST TIME WAS SCARY SINCE I COULDN'T GET SAFELY OFF THE ROAD. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MINIVAN BACK HOME WITH MY DAUGHTER AFTER HER DR.'S APPOINTMENT. MY FUEL GAUGE WAS SHOWING THAT I HAVE CLOSE TO 120 MILES TO EMPTY THE TANK. ALL OF A SUDDEN MY VAN LOST THE ENGINE POWER AND STARTED SHAKING AND FINALLY COMPLETELY STOPPED AFTER FEW HICCUPS. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE IT IN THE MIDDLE TURNING LANE AS SOON AS IT STARTED SHAKING AND I REALIZED A PROBLEM. THIS SAVED ME AND OTHERS FROM BEING IN AN ACCIDENT. ALSO, I WAS AT A LOWER SPEED AND GOING UP HILL AND THAT HELPED ME MANAGE TO MOVE IN THE MIDDLE WITHOUT CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. IF I HAD ON A HIGHWAY AND RUNNING AT A HIGHSPEED, I WOULD HAVE CAUSED A BIG ACCIDENT INVOLVING MANY VEHICLES. I FOUND OUT THAT MAY GAUGE WASN'T REPORTING THE FUEL PROPERLY AND I RAN OUT OF FUEL. WHEN I PUT SOME GAS FROM A CAN, I WAS ABLE TO START THE VEHICLE. SINCE THAT DAY, MY FUEL GAUGE IS NOT ACCURATE. I HAVE TO KEEP MY GAS FILLED UP JUST TO AVOID ANY SUCH HAPPENING AGAIN. I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED THAT SINCE I STARTED HAVING THIS PROBLEM MY VEHICLE ALSO STARTED ENGINE POWER LOSS AT LOWER SPEEDS. AT TIMES, IT LOOKS LIKE THE ENGINE IS GOING TO STOP AND THEN IT WILL GET A BIG JERK AND START TO MOVE NORMAL. THIS KIND OF BEHAVIOR IS NOT NORMAL AND MAY RESULT IN A UNSAFE/DANGEROUS CONDITION ON THE ROAD. THIS A PROBLEM WITH THE GAUGE/FUEL SYSTEM OR MAY BE THE COMPUTER ITSELF THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED AND SHOULD HAVE A RECALL ON IT. *TR

I BOUGHT A 2007 NISSAN QUEST WITH 138000 MILES AND A FULL TANK OF GAS ACCORDING TO THE ACCORDING TO THE NEEDLE. WITH JUST 130 DRIVEN IN 5 DAYS I LOSE ALL POWER STEERING AND BRAKES ON A BUSY ROAD. AFTER LEAVING MY CAR AT A MECHANIC SHOP FOR THE WEEKEND I CAME ACROSS MY PAPERWORK WHICH INCLUDED A CAMPAIGN NOTICE REGARDING THE FUEL GAUGE AND THAT I SHOULD TAKE MY CAR TO A DEALERSHIP FOR THEM TO REPLACE ONCE THE PARTS BECOME AVAILABLE AT MY COST TO ME FOR REPAIR. AFTER FINDING OUT THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO GAS IN THE VAN I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATE THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. EVEN THOUGH I HAVE WRITTEN NOTICE THAT THEY WILL REPAIR AT NO COST FOR LABOR AND PARTS THEY WILL NOT HONOR THEIR NOTICE. I MUST NOW PAY OUT OF MY OWN POCKET. *TR

Mileage: 139,000

WHILE GETTING ONTO A FREEWAY (DARK/RAINING/PM), THE VEHICLE SHUT DOWN WITHOUT WARNING. THIS CAUSED A COMPLETE POWER FAILURE TO THE POWER BRAKES AND POWER STEERING. THIS CREATED A IMMEDIATE HAZARD. ALSO, THIS LEFT MY WIFE AND TWO KIDS STRANDED. THE VEHICLE SHOWED ABOUT A 1/4 TANK OF GAS ON THE DASH AND THE DIGITAL READOUT IN THE CENTER CONSOLE SAID 68 MILES TO EMPTY. I TOWED THE VEHICLE HOME. PRIOR TO DOING DIAGNOSTIC WORK I PUT A GALLON OF GAS IN. THE VEHICLE STARTED RIGHT UP. I FILLED UP THE TANK THINKING MAYBE THE FLOAT/SENSOR MAY HAVE STUCK. AGAIN THE VAN WITHOUT WARNING SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY. THIS TIME IT WAS IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA. THE GAS GAUGE SHOWED 1/4 TANK AND CENTER CONSOLE COMPUTER READ 66 MILES TO EMPTY. I PLACED 5 GALLONS IN AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. THIS IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE FUEL LIGHT DOESN'T COME ON AND THERE IS NO WARNING WHEN THE CAR WILL SHUT DOWN. LOSING POWER BRAKES/STEERING UNEXPECTEDLY CREATES A SERIOUS HAZARD IN ITSELF. I KNOW KEEP THE TANK ABOVE 1/2 BECAUSE BELOW THAT I'M ROLLING THE DICE. HOPEFULLY NISSAN WILL DO THE RIGHT THING AND FIX THE ISSUE SINCE THERE SEEMS TO BE QUITE A FEW OF THESE. *TR

I'VE RAN OUT OF FUEL ABOUT THREE TIMES, THE FUEL GAUGE WAS READING 1/4 OR MORE OF FUEL. ABOUT THE THIRD TIME DRIVING AROUND 30MPH, MY QUEST RAN OUT OF FUEL BUT AGAIN, IT READ A 1/4 FULL. THIS TIME THE QUEST BECOME VERY HARD TO CONTROL TO GET OUT OF THE ROAD. I CALLED MY MECHANIC, HE SENT A TOWING TRUCK, AND DIAGNOSED THE QUEST WITH A BAD FUEL PUMP. HE REPAIRED COSTING ME ABOUT $880.00. HE ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE PUMP WENT BAD DUE TO RUNNING OUT OF FUEL SEVERAL TIMES. AROUND NOVEMBER 2014, NISSAN SENT ME A LETTER NOTIFYING ABOUT THE FUEL GAUGE MALFUNCTION AND DISPLAY AND ACCURATE FUEL LEVEL READING. NO CRAP, WONDER WHY I WAS RUNNING OUT GAS CONSTANTLY AND GETTING A BAD FUEL PUMP COSTING ME $880. I CALLED NISSAN DEMANDING A REFUND FOR REPLACING THE FUEL PUMP, AFTER GOING BACK AND FORTH THEY DENIED MY CLAIM. I THINK IS TIME TO START A CLASS A LAWSUIT DUE TO UNNECESSARY FUEL PUMP COST AND NEAR CRASH MISSES. *TR

Mileage: 128,000

THE VEHICLE HAS RAN COMPLETELY OUT OF FUEL TWO TIMES WITH THE FUEL GAUGE READING SLIGHTLY BELOW THE HALF TANK MARK ON BOTH OCCASIONS. THIS HAPPENED AT INTERSTATE SPEEDS OF AROUND SEVENTY MILES PER HOUR. THE VEHICLE, ALL AT ONCE, LOST TOTAL POWER AND IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO NAVIGATE IT OFF OF THE ROADWAY SAFELY. I CONTACTED NISSAN ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY ARE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM BUT THAT THERE IS NO CURRENT RECALL AND NOTHING THAT THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT AT THIS TIME. MY FAMILY AND I MAY BE KILLED THE NEXT TIME THIS HAPPENS, SO NO RUSH NISSAN. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY RISK THAT NEEDS ATTENTION QUICKLY. *TR

Mileage: 102,231

WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 NISSAN QUEST I PULLED UP TO A STOP LIGHT AND THE ENGINE DIED. IT WOULD NOT TURN OVER AND START AGAIN AS IF IT WAS OUT OF FUEL BUT THE GAUGE STILL SHOWED 1/4 TANK OF FUEL. I HAD TO HAVE A ST. LOUIS POLICE OFFICER STOP TRAFFIC DOWNTOWN SO I COULD PUSH MY QUEST OFF OF THE ROAD. HE THEN TOOK ME TO GET FUEL IN HOPES THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. I PUT FUEL IN IT AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. THEN THE VERY NEXT DAY THE GAUGE SHOWS THE VAN IS COMPLETELY EMPTY BUT IT IS TOTALLY FULL. IT THEN STARTS WORKING AGAIN THEN QUITS THEN STARTS WORKING AGAIN AND THE "DRIVE UNTIL EMPTY" GAUGE IS ALL OVER THE PLACE. WHEN THE FUEL GAUGE DOES START WORKING IT IS NEVER CONSISTENT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN QUEST. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS RE-FUELED AND ABLE TO RESTART. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYED 1/4 OF FUEL PRIOR TO THE VEHICLE STALLING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL PUMP AND THE FUEL PUMP RELAY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

Mileage: 70,000

DURING NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS, VAN SUDDENLY HAD ENGINE SHUT DOWN. LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES AS ENGINE WAS OFF. FUEL GAUGE INDICATED THAT THE FUEL TANK WAS APPROXIMATELY 1/4 REMAINING, BUT IN FACT THE FUEL TANK WAS EMPTY. THIS HAS HAPPENED 2 TIMES CAUSING THE ENGINE TO RUN OUT OF FUEL, WHILE THE FUEL GAUGE INDICATED THAT APPROXIMATELY 1/4 TANK OF GAS. BOTH OCCURRED DRIVING UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS AND CAUSED A LOSS OF NORMAL OPERATOR CONTROLS AS ALL POWER SYSTEMS CUT OFF WHEN ENGINE IS NOT RUNNING. THIS IS AN UNSAFE SITUATION TO DRIVE A VEHICLE BEING GIVEN INACCURATE FUEL INFORMATION. *TR

THE PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED THREE TIMES. THE FIRST TIME I WAS DRIVING AND THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND THE MOTOR QUIT WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC ON A 4 LANE HIGHWAY. I COASTED THE NISSAN QUEST OFF OF THE 4 LANE HIGHWAY AND ONTO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. ONCE STOPPED I TURN THE IGNITION SWITCH OFF AND THEN ON AGAIN. THE AMPS WERE GOOD, THE FUEL GAUGE WAS ABOVE 1/4 TANK. I TRIED TO CRANK IT BUT IT WOULD NOT START, AS IF IT WAS OUT OF GAS. THE FUEL DISPLAY SHOWED 70 MILES TO EMPTY. FUEL WAS ACQUIRED, PUT IN THE QUEST AND IT CRANKED UP. THE 2ND INCIDENT HAPPENED THE SAME, WITH FUEL GAUGE SHOWING 1/4 TANK & THE DISTANCE TO EMPTY WAS 68 MILES. I WAS LEFT STRANDED ON A ROADSIDE AGAIN. THE THIRD TIME WAS THE SAME AS THE FIRST TWO TIMES. I WASN'T STRANDED THE THIRD TIME BECAUSE I NOW HAVE TO DRIVE WITH A FILLED PORTABLE GAS CAN IN THE CARGO AREA. I CONTACTED NISSAN NORTH AMERICA & EVEN THOUGH THERE IS AN AGREED VOLUNTARY RECALL FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH THE 2007 NISSAN QUEST, I WAS TOLD THAT MY 2007 NISSAN QUEST WAS NOT RECALLED FOR THE CONFIRMED PROBLEM. *TR

I MADE A RIGHT AT A STOP SIGN AND AS I WAS COMPLETING THE TURN ALL POWER TO ENGINE WAS LOST. I HAD JUST BOUGHT THE VAN 6 DAYS PRIOR TO FAILURE. MY GAS READING WAS AT JUST BELOW HALF TANK. I COULD TURN THE KEY AND THE ENGINE WOULD TURN OVER BUT NOT CATCH ALL THE WAY. LOST ALL POWER STEERING AND BRAKING SYSTEMS TOO. VERY DANGEROUS AND UPSETTING HAD MY CHILDREN BEEN WITH ME. I HAD TO HAVE SOMEONE HOOD A CHAIN TO MY FRONT END TO GET THE VAN OUT OF THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. NO WARRANTY, ONLY SERVICE CONTRACT TO REPAIR. *TR

Mileage: 139,000

I PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY WHICH HAS A SLIGHT HILL. I WENT TO MOVE THE VEHICLE AND IT WOULD NOT START. THE MINIVAN WAS OUT OF GAS, THOUGH THE GAS GAUGE INDICATED 1/4 TANK. THE DEALER QUOTED ME $880 TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY AFTER DIAGNOSTICS. I THOUGHT IT WAS WAAAYYY TOO MUCH TO PAY, BUT I HAD A ROAD TRIP COMING UP AND BOUGHT PARTS FROM THE LOCAL AUTO STORE TO REDUCE THE COST. AS WITH SO MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS I'VE SEEN ON THE INTERNET, THE GAUGE DID NOT WORK AFTER THE REPLACEMENT. BEFORE AND DIRECTLY AFTER THE REPAIR, THE GAUGE READ 1/4 TANK WHEN IT WAS EMPTY, SO I JUST FILLED UP EARLY. SINCE THEN, MY ROUTINE HAS CHANGED AND SO HAS THE GAUGE. THE OTHER DAY I FILLED UP WHEN IT READ 1/2 TANK. HOWEVER, I PUT 16.5 GALLONS IN THE TANK. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN BELOW THE E MARK! I'M AFRAID MY CHILDREN AND I WILL BE STRANDED OR WRECK ONE DAY AS I CAN'T POSSIBLE TELL WHEN I NEED GAS. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND THE ONLY SUGGESTION THEY HAVE IS TO BRING IT BACK AND LET THEM LOOK AT IT AGAIN. SINCE OTHER NISSAN MODELS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THE SAME ISSUE, I CAN'T IMAGINE THAT PAYING THEM TO DIAGNOSE IT AGAIN WILL HELP! *TR

THIS IS FURTHER TO MY COMPLAINT ABOUT INCORRECT FUEL GAUGE READING AND RUNNING OUT OF GAS THREE TIMES WHEN BOTH THE FUEL GAUGE AND DIGITAL DISPLAY HAVE TOLD ME THAT I HAD BETWEEN 80 AND 130 MILES OF TRAVEL LEFT TO TRAVEL. LOW FUEL OR RESERVE LIGHT NEVER ILLUMINATED. MY SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON AND I CONNECTED MY CAR MD READER TO THE VEHICLE DATA CONNECTION AND RAN THE DIAGNOSTIC ON IT CAME BACK WITH THE FOLLOWING REPORT. I HOPE THIS WILL HELP, STORED CODES ARE CONDITIONS THAT YOUR VEHICLE REPORTED AFTER YOUR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS SET. CARMD USES THESE CODES TO ACCURATELY IDENTIFY A MOST LIKELY REPAIR OR "CURE". RETRIEVED DIAGNOSTIC CODE: P0462 TECHNICAL DEFINITION: FUEL LEVEL SENSOR A CIRCUIT LOW INPUT GENERIC DEFINITION: THIS FAULT CODE INDICATES THE COMPREHENSIVE COMPONENT MONITOR (CCM) HAS DETECTED A MALFUNCTION IN THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR CIRCUIT. THE SIGNAL FROM THE SENSOR WAS LOWER THAN THE MINIMUM EXPECTED VALUE FOR A PREDETERMINED PERIOD OF TIME FOR THE DRIVING CONDITIONS PRESENT WHEN THE CODE WAS SET. THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR MONITORS THE AMOUNT OF FUEL IN THE FUEL TANK. A FLOAT ARM ATTACHED TO A VARIABLE RESISTOR CHANGES POSITION AS THE FUEL LEVEL CHANGES. WHEN THE FUEL LEVEL IN THE TANK IS HIGH (THE FLOAT IS 'UP') THE RESISTANCE IS LOW; AS THE FUEL LEVEL DROPS (THE FLOAT MOVES 'DOWN'), RESISTANCE INCREASES. THE SIGNAL FROM THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR IS SUPPLIED TO THE VEHICLE'S FUEL GAUGE TO PROVIDE AN INDICATION OF THE AMOUNT OF FUEL IN THE FUEL TANK. ADDITIONAL RESOURCES IN SOME INSTANCES YOUR VEHICLE'S MANUFACTURER MAY ISSUE A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB) TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM. (?) ISSUED TSB? TSB NOT AVAILABLE MAYBE THIS WILL RESOLVE THE ISSUE NOW WITH THE SAFETY FACTOR AND FAULTY FUEL READING DUE TO COMPONENT PRODUCT FAILURE. TO ME THIS SEEMS THAT A THIS WILL BE $700 REPAIR BILL FOR A 25C PART. *TR

I JUST PURCHASED MY 2007 NISSAN QUEST IN MAY AND AFTER A MONTH IT STARTED DYING ON ME AS I WAS DRIVING. IT WAS OUT OF GAS BUT SAID IT HAD PLENTY OF GAS IN IT. IT ISN'T CONSISTENT EITHER, I COULD HAVE THE GAS GAUGE AT 1/8 OF A TANK AND IT WOULD STILL BE RUNNING OR IT WOULD READ ABOVE 1/4 OF A TANK AND IT WOULD BE DEAD ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE DTE GAUGE SAYS I HAVE ANOTHER 60+ MILES TO GO WHEN IT DIES. I AM TIRED OF RUNNING OUT OF GAS BECAUSE MY GAS GAUGE DOESN'T WORK CORRECTLY. *TR

Mileage: 140,000

THE VEHICLE FUEL GAUGE AND TRIP METER BOTH SHOW THAT I HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY MORE FUEL THAN IS ACTUALLY THE CASE, CAUSING ME TO BE STRANDED BESIDE THE ROAD WITH NO GAS. THIS FAULT HAS CAUSED MY WIFE AND MY DAUGHTER WHO WAS A SMALL CHILD TO BE STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN PRECARIOUS SITUATIONS. I REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO NISSAN BUT THEY BLEW ME OFF. I TOLD THEM THAT SIMILAR VEHICLES HAD BEEN RECALLED BUT THEY SAID THAT MY VEHICLE WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE VEHICLES THAT WERE AFFECTED. *TR

WAS DRIVING NEAR MY HOME WHEN THE VEHICLE ENGINE SIMPLY SHUT OFF AND STOPPED WORKING AND I HAD TO COAST TO A STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE STREET. FORTUNATELY I WAS AT LOW SPEED (ABOUT 25MPH) AND NOT IN A SITUATION WHERE THE HAZARD MIGHT HAVE BEEN HIGHER, SINCE THE POWER BRAKES ALSO SHUT OFF WITH THE MOTOR. I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT HAPPENED SINCE MY FUEL GAUGE WAS SHOWING A LITTLE OVER 1/4 TANK FULL AND THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON. AFTERWARDS I FIGURED THAT IT WAS PROBABLY LACK OF GAS, EVEN THOUGH THE INDICATOR STILL SHOWED OVER 1/4 TANK FULL, SO I WENT TO GET A SOME GAS AND PUT 5 GALLONS IN THE VEHICLE AND IT STARTED IMMEDIATELY, ON FIRST TRY. *TR

WHILE DRIVING OUR CAR SUDDENLY STALLED CAUSING OUR VAN TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. WE WERE ALMOST HIT TWICE WHILE SITTING THERE AS IT WAS A BUSY ROAD. THE GAS GAUGE SHOWED OVER A 1/4 OF A TANK AND THE DISPLAY FUEL ECONOMY SCREEN SAID 57 MILES REMAINING IN THE TANK, BUT THE TANK WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY. WE HAVE RAN OUT OF GAS TWICE BECAUSE OF THIS. THE GAUGE STOPS MOVING DOWN AT THE SAME SPOT EACH TIME AND THE DISPLAY SHOWED DIFFERENT MILES REMAINING BOTH TIMES (57 & 110 MILES). WE HAD THE FUEL PUMP REPLACED AS THIS WAS THE ONLY THING THE MECHANIC COULD THINK WAS WRONG WITH IT. NOT SAFE STALLING AND HAVING NO WHERE TO PULL OVER. *TR

Mileage: 152,000

WAS DRIVING VEHICLE AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH WHEN THE ENGINE SUDDENLY STALLED AND ALL POWER CONTROLS WERE LOST SUCH AS POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. CAR WAS CAREFULLY MANEUVERED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY. AFTER A THOROUGH INSPECTION IT WAS FOUND THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF FUEL HOWEVER THE FUEL GAUGE READ JUST LITTLE BELOW 1/4 OF A TANK. IT WAS BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION VIA THE INTERNET THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND I ALSO BELIEVE THAT THE SITUATION OF LOSING ALL FUNCTIONS OF THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT AND WAS A THREAT TO SAFETY. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN I LOSS ACCELERATION AND HAD REALIZED MY CAR HAD SHUT OFF. I WAS TOWING A TRAILER BEHIND ME AND HAD TO TRY TO MAKE IT TO THE EDGE OF THE ROAD. I WAS UNSURE OF WHY I FIRST BECAUSE MY GAS GAUGE SHOWED I HAD A QUARTER OF A TANK. I GOT FUEL PUT IN IT AND THEN IT WORKED. THIS YEAR I HAD MY ENGINE LIGHT COME ON AND SHOWED A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL SENDING UNIT. I TOOK IT TOO THE GARAGE AND HAD TO CHANGE THE FUEL PUMP AND SENDING UNIT. AFTER FIXING THE FUEL PUMP, I DROVE FOR 300 MILES AND MY GAS GAUGE ONLY MOVED A QUARTER OF TANK DOWN, MEANING MY FUEL GAUGE IS STILL NOT WORKING. NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND IS UNSAFE IF YOU ARE ON A HIGHWAY AND LOSE POWER TO YOUR CAR AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 65 MPH WHEN MY VAN STARTED DECELERATING. I TRIED PRESSING ON THE GAS, BUT THE VAN WOULD NOT PICK UP SPEED. I PULLED OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND THE VAN ROLLED TO A STOP AND WOULD NOT START AGAIN. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS AND HAD IT TOWED TO A REPAIR FACILITY. THE PROBLEM WAS THAT I RAN OUT OF GAS EVEN THOUGH MY FUEL GAUGE SHOWED THAT I HAD ONE-QUARTER OF A TANK. I CHECKED ONLINE AND SEE THAT THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER COMPLAINTS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING HER CAR AND IT SAID SHE STILL HAD 1/4 A TANK OF GAS BUT AS SHE WAS DRIVING IT RAN OUT OF GAS EVEN THOUGHT IT WAS SHOWING THE TANK AS 1/4 FILLED. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE TOLD US WE NEEDED TO GET A NEW FUEL PUMP AND IT WOULD BE $700. THEY TOLD ME THEY HAD NEVER SEEN THIS PROBLEM BEFORE. I DON'T BELIEVE THEM AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR A NEW FUEL PUMP FOR AN OBVIOUS DEFECT. *TR

Mileage: 102,000

IT ALL STARTED WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I HAD THE CODE READ AND IT SAID THE PROBLEM WAS THE SENDING UNIT SO I FIND OUT YOU CAN'T JUST REPLACE THAT YOU NEED TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY. ALRIGHT SO I HAVE A NEW FUEL PUMP PUT IN AT AROUND $700.00 DOLLARS I HAD THE TECH RESET MY CODES SO THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS OFF. WHEN I GO TO PUT GAS IN IT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES BACK ON SAME CODE. SO BASICALLY I JUST SPENT 700.00 DOLLARS FOR NOTHING I TAKE IT BACK TO THE MECHANIC AND HE SAY I DON'T KNOW IT COULD BE ANYTHING. AFTER LOOKING INTO IT I'M FINDING OUT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE KIDS AND THIS IS MY DAILY DRIVER I DON'T USE MY FUEL GAUGE RIGHT NOW I JUST MAKE SURE I ALWAYS HAVE GAS. I DON'T THINK IT'S VERY SAFE KNOWING THERE ARE MANY NISSAN VANS OUT THERE WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. MY QUESTION IS WHEN IS NISSAN GOING TO TAKE RESPONSIBLY FOR THIS MECHANICAL PROBLEM. RECALL MY 2007 NISSAN QUEST AND FIX THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED! *TR

FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM FAILURE. BOTH THE FUEL GAUGE ON THE DASH AND ELECTRONIC FUEL GAUGE INDICATE NO FUEL. THIS PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT AND CAUSES THE SAFETY INDICATOR LIGHT TO GO ON. I HAD THIS CHECKED AT ADVANCED AUTO. THE FUEL LEVEL GAUGE IS BROKEN. I WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE FUEL PUMP BECAUSE THE PART IS NOT SOLD SEPARATELY. $350 JUST FOR THE FUEL PUMP. I WAS TOLD THAT NOT FIXING THE FUEL LEVEL GAUGE WOULD LEAD TO WORSE PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL PUMP. I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE FOR A COUPLE MONTHS NOW. I HAVE FAILED SAFETY INSPECTION BECAUSE THE SAFETY LIGHT IS ON. *TR

ON AUGUST 20, 2014 WHILE DRIVING BACK FROM VA TO MD ON I495, OUR 2007 NISSAN QUEST BEGAN TO STALLED AND THEN THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF COMPLETELY WHILE WE WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS HIGHWAY. LUCKILY, THERE WEREN'T MUCH TRAFFIC AND WE WERE ABLE TO PULLED OVER TO THE EMERGENCY LANE WITH THE VEHICLE'S MOMENTUM. WE ALSO NOTICE THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO STIFFEN UP WHERE IT WAS BECOMING DIFFICULT TO STEER. AT WHICH TIME, WE ALSO NOTICE THAT THE FUEL GAUGE HAD ABOUT 1/4 OF A TANK OF FUEL LEFT AND THE DISPLAY ON THE DASHBOARD HAD INDICATED 72 MILES LEFT BEFORE EMPTY. UPON COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP ON THE EMERGENCY LANE, WE TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR SEVERAL TIMES, BUT IT WOULDN'T START. AFTER A COUPLE OF TRIES, THE FUEL GAUGE SUDDENLY DROPPED TO E (EMPTY) AND THE DASHBOARD MONITOR DISPLAYED ALL STARS (*****) WHICH INDICATES EMPTY FUEL. AFTER WAITING FOR 1 HOUR, MY FRIEND CAME WITH HIS CAR AND WE WENT TO A GAS STATION AND BOUGHT A CONTAINER WITH 2 GALLON OF GAS WHICH WE PUT IT INTO THE OUR QUEST. AT WHICH TIME THE CAR STARTED NORMAL AND WE WERE ON OUR WAY. THIS WAS A VERY FRIGHTENING AND DANGEROUS EXPERIENCE FOR US. SINCE THE INCIDENT, THE FUEL GAUGE HAS BEEN ACTING UP AND GIVING US FALSE READINGS. JUST LAST WEEK WHEN WE FILLED UP OUR CAR, THE FUEL GAUGE WAS DISPLAYING EMPTY. *TR

I WAS TRAVELING ON A STATE ROAD AT APPROX. 50 MPH. I WAS BEGINNING TO START A CURVY HILL AND PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL WITH NO RESPONSE. THERE WAS NO ENGINE REVVING HEARD AND THE TACHOMETER HAD DROPPED TO ZERO AND ALL DASH LIGHTS WERE ON AS IF I HAD JUST TURNED THE KEY TO THE 'ON' POSITION TO START IT. THERE WAS NO LOW FUEL LIGHT AND THE FUEL GAUGE INDICATED 1/4 TANK. I TRIED TURNING THE ENGINE OVER, BUT IT WOULDN'T CRANK AS IF IT WAS OUT OF GAS. THANKFULLY THERE WAS NO ONE BEHIND ME COMING AROUND THE BLIND CURVE OR ELSE SOMEONE WOULD HAVE BEEN SEVERELY INJURED OR WORSE. I PRESSED THE TRIP BUTTON SEVERAL TIMES ON THE DATA DISPLAY AND IT WAS FLASHING ASTERISK AS IF IT WAS OUT OF GAS. I WALKED 2 MILES TO A GAS STATION AND PUT A GALLON OF GAS IN THE TANK AND THE CAR VAN CRANKED RIGHT UP WHICH INDICATED THE VAN WAS OUT OF GAS, BUT THE FUEL GAUGE AND LOW FUEL LIGHT WAS FAULTY. THIS HAS OCCURRED 3 OTHER TIMES WITH MY WIFE DRIVING ALONE. ONCE WAS ON A U.S. HWY. IT APPEARS THERE'S A BAD FUSE OR BAD SENSOR, BUT WE'RE NOT SURE AND I'VE NOT SEEN ANY RECALLS ON THIS. NOW WE JUST HAVE TO KEEP AN EYE ON THE DATA DISPLAY ONCE THE FUEL HITS A HALF TANK. IT'S JUST NOT SOMETHING YOU THINK TO DO WHILE DRIVING. I AT LEAST WISH THE TRIP DISPLAY WOULD POP UP AS A LOW FUEL BACKUP, BUT WHEN YOUR CHILDREN ARE WATCHING A DVD OR THE RADIO IS ON AND YOU'RE CONCENTRATING ON DRIVING YOU DON'T THINK TO PRESS THE TRIP BUTTON TO CHECK THE DTE. I WISH SOMEONE WOULD COME UP WITH A SOLUTION OR SHOW A RECALL. WE ARE DESPERATE AND AFRAID SOMEONE WILL EITHER BE INJURED OR IT WILL DO DAMAGE TO THE VAN. WE CAN'T AFFORD TO TAKE TO THE DEALER TO PAY A HIGH PRICE B/C MY WIFE IS IN SCHOOL. PLEASE HELP! *TR

IN APRIL 2012 THE NISSAN QUEST STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC - THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED ALONG WITH THE SENSOR - CHARGED $694.00. ON JULY 8TH THE CAR STOPPED AND THE FUEL GAUGE INDICATED A HALF A TANK OF GAS. I PUT GAS IN THE CAR BUT THE GAUGE DID NOT MOVE. IN RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE 2007 NISSAN QUEST BECAUSE OF THE FUEL GAUGE. NISSAN UNWILLING TO REPAIR VEHICLE. THE FIRST TIME THIS OCCURRED IT WAS VERY DANGEROUS, VEHICLE STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY ROAD - POLICE HAD TO BE CALLED TO GET MY WIFE AND DAUGHTER OUT OF VAN UNTIL VEHICLE COULD BE TOLLED.

PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL PUMP/SYSTEM HAVE OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES. ON OR ABOUT 1/6/2013, WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH AND COMING TO A LIGHT, THE CAR TURNED OFF. THE GAUGE SHOWED 1/4 TANK. THE MECHANIC REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP AND ADDED 1 GALLON OF GAS. NEXT DAY, THE SAME THING HAPPENED AS APPROACHING A RED LIGHT. FUEL LEVEL STILL AT 1/4 TANK. MECHANIC ADDED GAS AND THE CAR STARTED. GAS GAUGE IS INACCURATE AND DANGEROUS. IN FEBRUARY 2013, ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, AFTER DRIVING/PARKING THE VAN, IT WOULD START AND THEN TURN OFF, START AND THEN TURN OFF. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO RUN BY GIVING IT GAS AS SOON AS IT STARTED. ON 3/13/2013, AFTER DRIVING THE VAN AND PARKING IT, IT WOULD NOT START. IT KEPT CRANKING, BUT NOTHING. MECHANIC FOUND ELECTRICAL PROBLEM IN THE WIRING AND WAS ABLE TO FIX IT. ON 3/28/2013, THE CAR STARTED AND THE FUEL GAUGE DROPPED TO EMPTY WITH SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT ON. VAN HAD A FULL TANK OF GAS. MECHANIC REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP AND SAID THERE IS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL PUMP GROUNDING. ON A NISSAN FORUM I DISCOVERED THE FOLLOWING RECALL: "THE RECALL AFFECTS 2005 - 2008 NISSAN TITAN, ARMADA AND INFINITI QX56S AS WELL AS NISSAN FRONTIER PICKUPS AND PATHFINDER AND XTERRA SUVS PRODUCED BETWEEN JANUARY AND MARCH 2006 AND BETWEEN OCTOBER 2007 AND JANUARY 2008. DUE TO A PROBLEM WITH A SENSOR INSIDE THE FUEL TANK, THE GAUGES CAN SHOW GAS TANKS A QUARTER FULL WHEN THEY ARE IN FACT EMPTY." I THINK THE NISSAN QUEST SHOULD ALSO BE RECALLED BECAUSE THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS PROBLEM WHICH IS ENDEMIC TO THESE CARS. *TR
