ADD GAS TO THE TANK THE GAUGE WILL SHOW EMPTY FOR A WHILE AND THEN WILL GRADUALLY OVER ONE TO TWO DAYS GET TO THE "RIGHT" AMOUNT IN THE TANK. TANK DOES NOT RESET SHOW EMPTY WHEN FUEL. EVENTUALLY RESET TO CORRECT STATUS THE NEXT DOES. DISTANCE TILL EMPTY DOES NOT RESET. I FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ON THE INTERNET AND THE DEALER ACTS LIKE I AM THE FIRST ONE TO BRING THIS ISSUE TO THEM. THIS CREATES A HUGE SAFETY RISK OF NOT KNOWING WHAT THE CORRECT VOLUME IS. MANY NISSAN OWNERS ARE REPORTING THIS ISSUE AND NOTHING IS BEING ADDRESSED. *TR

I FILLED MY 2007 NISSAN PATHFINDER UP WITH GAS. WHEN I STARTED DRIVING HOME, I NOTICED TO SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT WAS ON. IT HAS REMAINED ON FOR A WEEK CONTINUOUSLY. THE FUEL GAUGE STARTED GOING CRAZY DURING THIS TIME. ONE MINUTE IT SHOWS A FULL TANK AND THE NEXT IT SHOWS EMPTY AND THE NEXT A HALF A TANK TO THREE QUARTERS A TANK. TODAY, I FILLED UP THE TRUCK AND IT SHOWS A HALF TANK. ALSO, DURING THIS TIME THE DTE STARTED OUT FLUCTUATING AND NOW JUST SHOWS --- ALL THE TIME. *TR

I OWN A 2007 NISSAN PATHFINDER SE WITH 47000 MILES. THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR FAILED AND THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND PAID $100.00 TO READ THE ENGINE CODE AND CONFIRM THE SENDING UNIT WAS AT FAULT. THEY TOLD ME THAT THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM AND IT COST $400.00 DOLLARS TO FIX. IN THIS ECONOMY I AM UNABLE TO AFFORD THIS SO I WILL HAVE TO POSTPONE THIS FIX. MY CONCERN IS THAT IF I OR A FAMILY MEMBER FORGETS TO CHECK THE MILEAGE SINCE THE LAST FILLUP, THIS VEHICLE CAN SHUT DOWN AT HI SPEED AND LOSE STEERING AND BRAKES. I JUST FOUND OUT THAT NISSAN ISSUED A RECALL TO FIX THIS PROBLEM BUT LIMITED IT TO A FEW VEHICLES MANUFACTURED DURING A FEW MONTHS FROM 2005-2007. MY VEHICLE MISSED THIS SMALL WINDOW BY 2 MONTHS. *TR

THE LAST 3 TIMES THAT I'VE FILLED MY GAS TANK, THE GAUGE SAYS EMPTY AND THE LIGHT INDICATING LOW FUEL COMES ON. THE DTE (DISTANCE UNTIL EMPTY) INDICATOR SHOWS -------INDICATING ZERO MILES LEFT UNTIL I RUN OUT OF GAS. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALSO COMES ON. ABOUT 2 DAYS LATER MY FUEL GAUGE WILL START TO REGISTER CORRECTLY AND THEN ON THE 3RD DAY, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL GO OFF. I CALLED SUTHERLIN NISSAN IN FT MYERS WHICH IS WHERE I BOUGHT MY 2007 NISSAN PATHFINDER BRAND NEW AND I SPOKE WITH NICOLE IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHO TOLD ME THAT MY SUV WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL AND IN ORDER FOR THEM TO DETERMINE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS, I WOULD HAVE TO COME IN FOR A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK AND I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CHECK AND THE REPAIRS. *TR

FAULTY FUEL GAUGE SENSOR, 2007 NISSAN PATHFINDER . IT WAS THANKSGIVING DAY, I WAS RETURNING HOME WHEN MY SON I STOPPED TO FILL UP. MY SON WAS DRIVING AND SHORTLY AFTER TAKE OFF HE INDICATED THE GAUGE WASN'T WORKING, THE DISTANCE TO EMPTY NUMBERS WEREN'T UP AND THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT WAS ON. WE GOT OFF AT THE NEXT EXIT AND I THOUGHT HE MUST HAVE NOT BEEN PAYING ATTENTION AND NO GAS WAS PUMPED. I TRIED TO FILL UP ONLY TO GET ABOUT .50 CENTS IN THE TANK. I DROVE HOME AND NOTICE THE DISTANCE NUMBERS READ BACKWARD UNTIL THE NEEDLE WAS ON FULL AND IT READ CORRECTLY. I DROVE THE VEHICLE A COUPLE OF DAYS THEN THE LIGHT WENT OFF. AFTER DRIVING FOR ANOTHER FEW DAYS THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON. I TOOK IT TO AUTOZONE FOR THEM TO TEST IT. THEY READ ME THE THINGS IT COULD BE. I THEN CALLED NISSAN IN GONZALES AND THEY TOLD ME THAT SOUND ABOUT RIGHT AND IT WOULD COST ME AROUND $500 PLUS TAX. I DIDN'T HAVE THE $$ AT THE TIME THEREFORE I HAD TO CONTINUED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITH THE ENGINE LIGHT STILL ON, AND TRY AND MONITOR MY MILEAGE AND ESTIMATE HOW LONG I HAD BEFORE EMPTY. TIMES I WOULD FILL UP AND NEEDLE WOULD DROP TO EMPTY AND GAS LIGHT WOULD BE ON AND OVER A COURSE OF 2 OR 3 DAYS, IT EVENTUALLY WENT OFF, AT TIMES IT WOULD STILL SHOW FULL, AND IT WOULD GIVE ME THE DISTANCE TO EMPTY UNTIL ABOUT HALF WAY THEN I JUST HAD THE DOTS. THIS WAS ALWAYS SOMEWHERE AROUND 180-200 MILES REMAINING. I'VE BEEN DRIVING AROUND A LITTLE OVER 3 MONTHS WITH THE FAULTY SENSOR. CAN I TELL YOU MY NERVES WERE BAD, BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO BE ON THE ROAD AT NIGHT, OR ANYTIME AND RUN OUT OF GAS. I FINALLY TOOK MY CAR IN FOR A DIAGNOSTIC AND THEY TOLD ME THIS IS FOR SURE WHAT I NEEDED. I JUST GOT MY CAR REPAIRED ON MONDAY, MARCH 1, 2010. YOU BETTER BELIEVE I HAVE MY RECEIPT. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 NISSAN PATHFINDER THAT IS ONLY AT 33,700 MILES. ON 2/6 I HAVE MY CAR SERVICED. ON 2/19 MY CHECK ENGINE SOON LIGHT ILLUMINATED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THIS MORNING 2/20 AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE FUEL SENSOR. THEY ALSO SAID IT WASN'T UNDER WARRANTY (NOT TRUE). AFTER GETTING A QUOTE OF $600, I DID RESEARCH AND UPON READING FORUMS HAVE COME TO THE REALIZATION NISSAN WILL NOT RECALL/FIX THIS PROBLEM IN THEIR VEHICLES. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD DUE TO THE FUEL GAUGE NOT WORKING PROPERLY AND THE POSSIBILITY OF RUNNING OUT OF GAS, WHETHER IT BE ON THE HIGHWAY OR CITY STREETS. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN PATHFINDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE GAS GAUGE WAS INCORRECT. WHEN SHE FILLED IT WITH GAS, IT WOULD DISPLAY THE TANK BEING EMPTY AND VICE VERSA. SHE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR WAS DEFECTIVE. AT TIMES, THE GAS GAUGE WOULD DISPLAY THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF GAS. THE ISSUE WAS NOTICED EVERY TIME SHE DROVE THE VEHICLE. SHE CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER WHO TOLD HER THAT SHE WAS OUTSIDE THE WARRANTY AND THAT THEY COULD NOT ASSIST HER. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED TO-DATE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 55,000.

ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO I WAS DRIVING DOWN A MAJOR INTERSTATE AND SUDDENLY MY TRUCK CUT OFF. LUCKILY I WAS ALREADY IN THE FAR RIGHT LANE WHICH ALLOWED ME TO MERGE ONTO THE SHOULDER BEFORE STOPPING COMPLETELY. WHEN THE TRUCK CUT OFF, THE POWER STEERING ALSO WENT OUT MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER THE TRUCK OUT OF THE ROAD. BEING THAT THIS PORTION OF THE INTERSECTION WAS UNDER CONSTRUCTION, MY TRUCK WAS NOT ABLE TO CLEAR THE ADJACENT LANE WITH ON COMING TRAFFIC. TRAFFIC BACKED UP UNTIL SOMEONE JUMPED OUT OF THEIR CAR TO HELP PUSH THE TRUCK FURTHER ONTO THE SHOULDER. I LATER FOUND OUT THAT THE TRUCK RAN OUT OF GAS AND THE FUEL LEVEL INDICATOR STOP WORKING ON MY CAR. I HAD NO WAY OF KNOWING WHEN MY CAR WAS LOW ON FUEL OTHER THAN TO KEEP A RUNNING TAB ON HOW MANY MILES I HAVE DRIVEN SINCE THE LAST FILL UP OF FUEL. THE SAME EXACT THING HAPPEN TO MY WIFE WHILE DRIVING DOWN A MAJOR ROAD.(SHE HAS THE 2006 PATHFINDER AND MINE IS THE 2007 PATHFINDER) SHE SUDDENLY LOST HER POWER STEERING AND COULD NOT PULL OVER INTO A NEAR BY GAS STATION ALMOST CAUSING A FEW CARS TO CRASH INTO HER TRUCK. AFTER TAKING MY TRUCK TO THE DEALER TO DETERMINE THE PROBLEM, THEIR REPLY WAS THAT THE PROBLEM COULD NOT BE REPAIRED UNDER THE WARRANTY AND TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM WOULD COST ME A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF MONEY. THEY WERE WELL AWARE OF THE PROBLEM DUE TO MANY OF THEIR TRUCKS HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. OUR LOCAL MECHANIC CALLED THE DEALER ALSO TO INQUIRE ABOUT THE ISSUE AND WAS TOLD THAT IT IS VERY COMMON FOR ALL OF THE NISSAN PATHFINDERS TO HAVE THIS ISSUE AT APPROXIMATELY 30K MILES. HE STATED THAT THEY HAVE BEEN REPAIRING THEM VERY OFTEN. BOTH ME AND MY WIFE FEAR THAT WE COULD GET INTO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT OR CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS MANUFACTURER FLAW. WE BOTH FEEL THAT A MANUFACTURER RECALL IS IN ORDER AND THAT NISSAN CORP IS PUTTING IT'S BUYERS IN DANGER BY REFUSING TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED BY THE DEALER FREE OF CHARGE TO THE BUYER. WE DO NOT PLAN TO EVER PURCHASE ANOTHER NISSAN. *TR
