The fuel gauge failed to drop all the way to e. No warning light that fuel is low. While on a city street, on the on ramp to an interstate my car's engine just stopped, no sputter, no lagging just 3k rpm to 0 rpm. I was able to shift my automatic transmission to neutral and coast to the shoulder on the on ramp. Unable to restart engine. Cranked but nonstart. Added fuel and car started right up. At the time of the stall the fuel gauge read approximately 33/8 of a tank of gas. Prior to this occuring, when tank would get low the warning light came on around 1/8th of a tank. . About halfway been the 1/4 mark and e. Since this occured I have tested the fuel pump, sending unit and fuel level float, and they all test ok. . When the tank was filled after this the fuel gauge moved back up to the full mark (slightly above,) so the needle is not stuck.
Recently ive been getting the red airbag signal that keeps flashing and wont go off. Ive checked the fuses. Wiring. Ran diahnostics on it for that and the following issues as well. The car makes a high pitch sound when its just ideling that seems to come feom underneath the car maybe towards back middle ive gotten a new fuel pump checked wiring fuses and bought other new parts and have been unable to figure out what it is. Also the gas gauge wont read after the half way point. Ive tried to reset it calibrate it and nothing. During cold days the gas gauge reads correctly until the car warms up. Mo ths have gone by and nothing so far.
My car has been checked thru a scanner since it wont start. At first it started not wanting to turn on on the first try. It did that for about a couple of months til I decided to just station it. . . And now it cranks as if it wants to start up but it doesnt start up. So ive replaced the camshaft sensor but it still wont start so I was told its the fuel pump that needs replacement so I was going to purchase one but was told theres a recall on such part for Nissan Altima 2005. What can I do to get it fixed?.
I see in 2007 Nissan recalled the crankshaft and I was never informed of this. I took my car to sears on March 31st and brought a battery because I thought this was the problem the check engine light was still on so I took my car to my mechanic today 4-1-14 and was told not only do I have to replace my crankshaft sensor, but my speed sensor and my fuel pump system which is going to cost me a total of $1395. 66 to repair is there anything I can do about this since Nissan never informed me of the problem with the crankshaft in 2007?.
