Other Fuel System Pump Problems of Nissan Pathfinder

Sudden loss of acceleration when fuel level is low, particularly when starting a turn or starting to cross a street from a stop, if the vehicle does not accelerate then an accident may happen. The vehicle computer reports a problem with emissions yet replacing the fuel pump made it go away.

We purchased a 2017 Nissan Pathfinder for our family 5 from peters Nissan in nashua n. H. August 2017. In November 2018 we started having problems with the vehicle losing power, and shaking like it's ready to stall out. We took it in to Nissan and they claimed they replaced all 6 fuel injectors and 5 upper injector 0-rings. We brought it back on Dec 3, 2018 for the same problem and Nissan documentation states that they performed road test and vehicle road gauge read all the way empty even though the vehicle had one half a tank of fuel. They claimed to have replaced internal fuel pump and and the vehicle fuel gauge was then reading at the appropriate level and the vehicle was returned to us. On Jan 14, 2019 we took the vehicle back to Nissan for the same mechanical problem and they kept it until Feb 6 claiming that they were doing extensive research to diagnose and fix the problem. After 3 weeks without our vehicle we were called to pick it up and the work order stated �road tested vehicle and could not duplicate condition�. However the paperwork indicates that the mileage in was 23181 and the mileage out was exactly the same, 23181, indicating that Nissan never really did anything to resolve the problem. We are a family of 5 and for us this vehicle was a huge investment, we're confident in the Nissan brand name but now we are regretting our decision. We have requested that Nissan buy the vehicle back so we can purchase a reliable vehicle from another brand name corporation or at a minimum replace this vehicle with a new Nissan Pathfinder to no avail, so now we feel we are stuck with this high priced lemon.

The contact owns a 2008 Nissan Pathfinder. The contact stated that when the vehicle was started, the check engine warning indicator illuminated. The contact also stated that the fuel gauge did not provide the accurate fuel level. The failure recurred several times. The vehicle was taken to the dealer (jim burke Nissan, 1300 3rd avenue north, birmingham, al, 205-291-1106) where it was diagnosed that the fuel pump system needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that there was no recall. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

The fuel gauge stopped working. I changed the fuel pump and the sending unit thinking this was the problem. I never received a warning that anything was wrong. I looked online for recalls and saw that there were recalls for this problem in the 2005 and older models of Pathfinders. I took my car to a Nissan dealer and was told the fuel gauge not working is a problem with this model Nissan. Learned that my fuel gauge wasn't working when my car stopped on the highway due to my car having run out of gas which could have caused me to have an accident. No warning. Nothing. If the fuel gauge not working is a problem with 2005 and older models of Nissan why wasn't there a recall for the 2004 if this is also an issue for the 2004 model? I took my car to a Nissan dealer regarding the fuel gauge and was told that the part is discontinued. How would I fix this if the part doesn't exists? if this is an issue in the 2004 Nissan, why not recall this part to fix the problem? this could have and can cause a serious accident.

I was stranded in a parking lot because my car would not start. After having it towed to the dealership, I find out it is the "intermix" between the radiator and the transmission. I never received any information about this from Nissan, but now understand it was a known and frequent failure - by design. Essentially, after 90,000 mile, the car is worthless because of this issue. After paying $5,000 for the repair, I drove off the lot only to have my fuel pump fail. Literally, I drove off the lot and the engine began misfiring. Unbelievable.

Problems start after I ended payments on my car; the surround sound got bad and I have to replaced it $500. Cost me. Takata recall I did called the dealer and told me my VIN number isn't in the recall so they said nothing to worry, then another situation came up about the fuel pump, I did called the dealer and they said my VIN number isn't in the recall either and I had pay $600. In may 9, 2016 first time I was driving my car and broke down in the middle of the intersection, also another time I was driving on the bridge and when I was driving the car was going down on the bridge broke down out of not where, was very scary, police and other people help push my car to a safety area. Both time was because I run out of gas cause the gear pump wasn't telling me I run out of gas. Next one was the radiator and trans service. They said radiator was crack need to replace I spent $800. Next problem p1774 said low coast brake-fastens solenoid valve function. All this time engine light came on and charged me $50. To reset light. Then next problem is the transmission now is 4 gear come with issues and is in the mechanic now,June 6, 2017 I need to replace it and charging me $3,200. But they still working own cause they don't know yet if doesn't work I will need to pay more. This is ridiculous cause this car only have 8 years and I keep maintaining my car since I got it, so disappointed and I shouldn't didn't pay for all this cause is a recall and my car is 2008 and all the problems my car had is in the recall just cause my VIN number isn't that isn't fear. Hope anybody understand my frustrations and find the solution of this problems. Pay me back what I being putting in to this car.

Tl-the contact owns a 2003 Nissan Pathfinder. The contact stated that the fuel pump failed which it does not allowed the contact to see the fuel gage. The vehicle was taken to the dealer but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacture was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 160,000. Aw.

Nissan stalled while at stop sign and again at gas station. Left us stranded again. Have had the ecm replaced three times, fuel pump three times, all to find this problem. Nissan recalled ecm and that has been replaced three times once under recall. The recall does not solve the problem.

The first time while driving the Pathfinder in regular driving conditions, the engine stalled at approximately 30 mph. To restart the engine I had to put the transmission in neutral and turn the key all the way off and then restart the vehicle. The second time this happened I was driving again the same day, cruising along at about 50 mph in traffic, and the engine died again with no warning. The instrument cluster showed all the typical "dummy lights" after the engine failed the first two times. When we parked the Pathfinder we could smell gas at the rear passenger door on the drivers side. We took the Pathfinder to the shop for repair. Fuel smell was corrected by installing a fuel pump seal and the fuel pump system was reseated, and reinstalled after an incorrect installation by a previous mechanic. After receiving the Pathfinder back fro our shop, the engine died again while sitting in a parked position running in an idle state. No instrument cluster lights came on when engine died this time (the 3rd time), no check engine or codes displayed. Then while driving again at 50 mph in normal driving conditions the engine died again, no indication of electrical issues, no flashes in headlights, interior lights, no flux in the hvac fan, nothing. Tachometer dropped to zero with no other indication the engine died, no vibration, no jerking. I put the transmission in neutral, shut of the key, and try to restart with no success. I coasted the car to the side of the road and turned the key off and removed it from the ignition and then re inserted it to restart the Pathfinder. Again, no check engine lights, no codes, nothing to indicate a problem. I purchased this car used only days ago 11/30/2014, and it has spent everyday in the shop trying to resolve this issue. It has only 96540 original miles on it, and is a very clean vehicle.

Ses indicator illuminated. Loss of power was noticed. Took vehicle to independent service center where code was read indicating fuel system error. Upon further diagnosis, the fuel pump assembly was recalled. When the selling dealer was notified they said the recall date had expired as of last November and was not covered. The cost to replace the fuel pump assembly was more than $970. We should have been notified of the recall but were not. Since the parts are only available from Nissan, the cost of the parts should be covered even after expiration of the recall especially with the loss of power.

While driving the vehicle it shut off and would not start back up. The fuel pump failed leaving no fuel pressure.

I have a 2005 Nissan Pathfinder, as I was on the interstate, the car just died and the same almost happened to me! the fuel sensor went out so couldn't find out the fuel levels, then it stalled out as I was driving!! I had to replace the whole fuel pump, but I am lucky to be alive and want this to be a 2005 recall!.

2005 to 2008 Nissan Pathfinder many, many,owners are have the same problem with the fuel sending unit/sensor going bad between 35k to 45k after the warranty expires, which must be a deficit and should be a recall because it could lead to a bigger problem that will possibly stop the fuel pump and cause the vehicle to stop without warning that happen with the Nissan xerra SUV which was a recall in 2000 to 2004 models. The repair for this fuel sending unit cost approximately $600 dollar to repair and their is no grantee that it will not happen again or if its a upgrade.

2005 Nissan Pathfinder fuel indicator light sensor, after reading several identical complaints it seems to be a defect with the sensor. But in order to get a 80 pert fixed the dealers are charging $500-700 with labor and having customers replace the entire fuel pump while there at it. At 60,0000 miles the fuel gauge now reads empty and the check engine sensor remains on. If I don't pay to fix the sensor I will not know how much gas I have & several customers failed inspection.

The contact owns a 2005 Nissan Pathfinder. Due to failures, the contact has only driven the vehicle three times since it was purchased on may 21, 2008. The engine light remains illuminated on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and they would bypass the engine and shut off the light. On two occasions, the vehicle would not start because it was too hot. The vehicle was purchased with the original stereo system, but, when it stopped working, the dealer replaced it with a demo. The contact took the vehicle to a different mechanic and was informed that the fuel pump sensors were failing and a fuel pump was needed. The current mileage was 47,000 and failure mileage was 46,655. Updated 07/10/08. Upated 07/08/08.
