3 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 08/12/2016

In 2010, Nissan recalled many 2006 and 2008 Nissan Pathfinders (10v-075) for a fuel gauge inaccuracy issue, where the gauge would "show that the vehicle still has some fuel, typically about one quarter tank, when the fuel tank is actually empty. " oddly, Nissan then sent out an ntb (ntb07-069d) later in 2010 to remedy the same issue on many more Nissan models, including 2005-2008 Pathfinders. Why this defect initially deserved a recall and then only a less noticeable ntb is unclear. Our own 2007 Pathfinder was apparently was not included in the recall, but it has developed exactly the same fuel sensor problem. This suggests that Nissan failed to fully recall all models affected by the fuel sensor defect, and the subsequent ntb (the warranty for which has already passed) provided no protection for the problem when it developed. I do not understand why Nissan would recall only a few models affected by this defect and ignore the fact that the defect was present in many more models. I also don't understand why NHTSA would allow such a partial recall. Why would a recall only apply to some of the affected vehicles?.

4 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 11/24/2015

Car gas gage is stuck on empty, even though there is a full tank of gas. Check engine light is on. Nissan says I need a new fuel level sending unit.

5 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 09/10/2015

Tl- the contact owns a 2007 Nissan Pathfinder. The contact stated that the fuel gauge was fractured and the check engine light illuminated and stayed on. The contact stated that when he filled the fuel tank, the fuel gauge light illuminated and stayed on. In addition, the contact stated that the vehicle overheated and the anti-freeze had mixed with the transmission fluid and ran onto the road and garage floor. The manufacturer was not notified of the issue. The approximate failure mileage was 100,000. Bd.

6 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 04/25/2015

The contact owns a 2007 Nissan Pathfinder. Every time the fuel gauge read below half a tank, the vehicle would stall. The vehicle would restart and resume normal operation once the fuel tank was filled. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was 130,000.

7 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 03/02/2015

Gas gauge displays incorrectly and has a related check engine light. The gauge sometimes seems to work and then precipitously drops to empty even though tank is nearly full. This additionally seems to cause a check engine light to display, and when checked, shows a p0463 code (fuel level sensor circuit high input). The car is nearly undrivable due to fear of running out of fuel or worse such as a fuel leak or electrical short. The "distance to empty" display on the dash also no longer works as a backup.

8 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 07/30/2014

First the fuel sensor went out. Once I got that fixed (640. 00) the fuel tank wouldn't fill up and the gauges were off. Then fluid leaked into the radiator and I had to replace the radiator (1,000. 00). Then I had to flush it twice. Then the car overheated because the thermostat was gone. $250. 00. Now the car won't start and I'm being told it's the ignition gone bad. All of this has happen over three months. I will never buy another Nissan again. This was my third Nissan and last!!!!!!! where are the recalls if the same problems are occurring.

9 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 03/10/2013

Had half tank of gas. Filled at station fuel gauge didn't show full tank. Tried to add gas just to see if it really wasn't full, but wouldn't take anymore. Then immediately "check engine" light came on.

10 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 01/10/2013

Fuel level gauge shows incorrect readings. One moment it will show full, then empty, then quarter tank when it is actually nearing empty. The 2006 & 2008 models were recalled, not sure why the 2007 was not recalled also.

11 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 01/01/2013

Tl-the contact owns a 2007 Nissan Pathfinder. The contact stated that the fuel gauge failed when the fuel tank was filled the fuel gauge read empty. The local mechanic performed a diagnostic which located the failure at the fuel sending unit. The manufacturer advised the vehicle was not included in NHTSA campaign number 10v075000 (fuel system, gasoline). The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000 and the current mileage was 100,000. Li.

12 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 06/28/2012

Fuel gauge refused to give correct indication. Leaving us stranded as it indicated we had fuel but there was none in the tank.

13 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 09/08/2010

Filled up the gas tank, then it stays on empty & service engine light comes on. After a few choice words to the truck, I now have figured out it must be a defect in materials & urge you to look into this issue.

14 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 04/10/2009

Fuel gage was experiencing intermittent problems while still under warranty, to where when I filled it the fuel gage would drop to zero/empty. I took it into the Nissan dealer (sandy sandsing in pensacola, FL) and they told me the issue/recall was limited to the altima and the xterra only and not my Pathfinder. At 38000 miles the fuel gage issue was constant, but it was now out of warranty. Finally, Nissan issued a recall and I was unable to take advantage of the replacement because my mileage was over their limit. I am not asking to have this sensor replaced just for the fun of it, it is inoperable. Nissan should have to pay me for the poor gas mileage I get from having to constantly drive with a full fuel tank; because the gas gage was unreliable. I will never buy a Nissan again.

15 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 12/04/2008

I have a 2007 Pathfinder with 39k miles. I filled the gas tank up on last night. When I pulled away, the gauge read full. The next morning as I went to drive the vehicle, the gauge read empty and the ses light was on. I contacted the dealer who advised me this was common in the Pathfinder and it would cost 400 dollars. I contacted Nissan customer affairs that advised me that there is no recall and don't know this to be a common issue. As I have researched online, I see that this seems to be an issue that has been going on for years. Why are consumers not aware before making their purchase.
