In owners' own words
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. Fuel/propulsion system · reported at 168,000 miles
The contact owns a 2007 Nissan Quest. The contact stated that while driving 50 mph, the fuel gauge incorrectly displayed that the fuel tank was half full. The engine stalled without warning due to the empty fuel tank level. The vehicle was refueled and resumed normally. The vehicle had not been diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage 152,617. Fuel/propulsion system · reported at 152,617 miles
While driving, the car suddenly loses power and comes to a stop. After several attempts to restart the engine I decided to check the mte and gas gauge which both indicate there is plenty of gas to continue. I had the battery,alternator and starter checked and they were fine. So I decided to add more gas then shazam it started. Please inform if there's a recall or how to remedy the issue. Thanks.
