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.

My fuel gauge would say that I had over a quarter tank of gas and out of nowhere my van would shut down. No warning, no anything. This happened a few times. I got a recall letter in the mail about my fuel sensor and to keep a half a tank in it until I could get it fixed. I took my van to a Nissan dealership and they replaced the fuel amp meter (part no. 24819-zm70a). I was told that everything was good, but not even two days later at a quarter of a tank of gas my van shut down with no warning. I didn't even have power steering to help me guide my vehicle safely to the side of the road. My van started idling roughly and not acting like it had before I took it in for the recall. I took the van back up to the dealership that fixed my recall and they stated that the sensor is fine and now I have to replace the entire fuel pump sending unit. The entire problem has not been rectified. Now being told to spend $1000 dollars on a part to fix the same problem.
Tl- the contact owns a 2007 Nissan Quest. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicles gas gauge read that the fuel level was empty with the check engine light illuminated on the vehicles instrument panel.

We took our 2007 Nissan Quest in for the recall to repair our faulty fuel gauge reading on 10/24/15 and Nissan had our van until 11/13/15 and failed to resolve the issue. Code p0462 for the "fuel level sensor circuit low input" is still active an. D our fuel gauge still does not work. Nissan claims to have replaced the part stipulated in the recall, but replacing that part failed to resolve the problem. After our Quest spent 21 days at Nissan to have our fuel gauge recall fixed we were informed we would have to pay to resolve the issue. We took our Quest back to Nissan on 12/28/15 to have the issue of the faulty fuel gauge resolved. We were told to replace the fuel pump to make the fuel gauge work. The cost of the fuel pump is over $500. And does not include labor charges. After Nissan replaced the fuel pump our fuel gauge still does not work, and we run the risk of running out of fuel. Now we are told we must replace the instrument cluster to resolve the problem. The cost of the instrument cluster is over $300. Plus $35. To program it, and does not include labor charges. Why should we be responsible to pay over $1,000. To have an issue fixed that is covered by a recall? why should I pay for the replacement of a fuel pump if the fuel pump did not resolve the faulty fuel gauge reading? I would like to government to investigate why Nissan is not resolving problems covered by a government recall.
My fuel gauge showed about a quarter tank of gas and I was driving at about 35 mph when it suddenly stalled. Luckily there were no cars behind me and I was able to coast to the shoulder. I got the car towed to the shop . There were CO check engine light or any codes. The shop after testing the fuel pump and other things figured out is was empty on gas. Once we put gas, it was good to go. This is a safety hazard. What if it happens on a busy highway where I am not able to pull over to the shoulder. I see that there has been similar complaints, but there is no re-call. Please re-open the case.
The contact owns 2007 Nissan Quest. The contact stated that the fuel gauge was providing incorrect reading levels. The contact mentioned that the vehicle was previously repaired under a manufacturer customer satisfaction campaign for the fuel level gauge system. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic. The technician diagnosed that the fuel pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 83,000.
Vehicle stalled on morning drive to work. Over 1/4 tank of gas according to gas gauge. Had vehicle towed to auto repair where they determined it was a failed fuel pump. When the removed the gas tank to replace the fuel pump the mechanic said there was very little gas in the tank. They replaced the fuel pump and charged me $736. 00. When they tested the original fuel pump, it operated below the manufacturers specifications. The mechanic stated that trying to restart the engine with little gas in the tank (faulty gas gauge) caused the original fuel pump to overheat.
The contact owns a 2007 Nissan Quest. While driving approximately 30 mph, the fuel gauge displayed an incorrect reading indicating that the fuel tank was full when it was really empty. As a result, the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was refueled and resumed normal operation. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the fuel pump assembly would need to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 108,000.
Car did not start when showing 1/4 tank left. It was late at night and we figured the fuel pump was bad, so we towed it home. As a last resort before bringing it into the shop, we poured 1 gallon of gas into it the next morning and it started right up. 2nd time this has happened.
The contact owns a 2007 Nissan Quest. While driving 50 mph, the engine stalled. The contact stated that the vehicle was re-fueled and able to restart. The contact mentioned that the fuel gauge displayed 1/4 of fuel prior to the vehicle stalling. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed that the fuel pump and the fuel pump relay needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 70,000. The VIN was not available.
While driving the vehicle engine suddenly cut off and stopped running. Had vehicle towed to Nissan dealer and was told fuel pump had to be replaced costing $1163. 31. Then on December 15, 2014 while driving the vehicle stalled. Had fuel delivered and started right up, the fuel gauge indicated 1/4 tank left when it stalled. Once filled I monitored usage and concluded the gauge is off by 1/4 tank or more. Tried to have this covered as part of the pervious repair but they could not commit that this was part of the previous repair. Then in January I received notice of the fuel gauge recall pe14012. When I called the dealer they indicated my vehicle VIN was not shown to have a problem even though I have exactly the described problem. I have just received notice that this now a known problem and to call the dealer to schedule fuel gauge repair. How many others have had a similar failure which I believe is an extended part of this recall. The initial repair should be part of this recall and any charged paid for this should be refunded.
I parked in my driveway which has a slight hill. I went to move the vehicle and it would not start. The minivan was out of gas, though the gas gauge indicated 1/4 tank. The dealer quoted me $880 to replace the fuel pump assembly after diagnostics. I thought it was waaayyy too much to pay, but I had a road trip coming up and bought parts from the local auto store to reduce the cost. As with so many other complaints I've seen on the internet, the gauge did not work after the replacement. Before and directly after the repair, the gauge read 1/4 tank when it was empty, so I just filled up early. Since then, my routine has changed and so has the gauge. The other day I filled up when it read 1/2 tank. However, I put 16. 5 gallons in the tank. This should have been below the e mark! I'm afraid my children and I will be stranded or wreck one day as I can't possible tell when I need gas. I have contacted the dealer and the only suggestion they have is to bring it back and let them look at it again. Since other Nissan models have been recalled for the same issue, I can't imagine that paying them to diagnose it again will help!.
While driving our car suddenly stalled causing our van to stop in the middle of traffic. We were almost hit twice while sitting there as it was a busy road. The gas gauge showed over a 1/4 of a tank and the display fuel economy screen said 57 miles remaining in the tank, but the tank was completely empty. We have ran out of gas twice because of this. The gauge stops moving down at the same spot each time and the display showed different miles remaining both times (57 & 110 miles). We had the fuel pump replaced as this was the only thing the mechanic could think was wrong with it. Not safe stalling and having no where to pull over.
It all started with the check engine light. I had the code read and it said the problem was the sending unit so I find out you can't just replace that you need to replace the fuel pump assembly. Alright so I have a new fuel pump put in at around $700. 00 dollars I had the tech reset my codes so the check engine light is off. When I go to put gas in it the check engine light comes back on same code. So basically I just spent 700. 00 dollars for nothing I take it back to the mechanic and he say I don't know it could be anything. After looking into it I'm finding out a lot of people are having the same problem. I have kids and this is my daily driver I don't use my fuel gauge right now I just make sure I always have gas. I don't think it's very safe knowing there are many Nissan vans out there with this same problem. My Question is when is Nissan going to take responsibly for this mechanical problem. Recall my 2007 Nissan Quest and fix this problem before someone gets hurt or killed!.
My wife was driving her car and it said she still had 1/4 a tank of gas but as she was driving it ran out of gas even thought it was showing the tank as 1/4 filled. We took it to the dealership and the told us we needed to get a new fuel pump and it would be $700. They told me they had never seen this problem before. I don't believe them and I should not have to pay for a new fuel pump for an obvious defect.
Our 2007 Nissan Quest fuel gauge will show empty and the service engine soon light comes even though the tank is full. The entire fuel pump assembly was replaced at a cost of $814. 62. Within a week the same problem occurred and ses light came back on. The fuel pump assembly was replaced again under a parts warranty from the work the previous week. After the second fuel pump assembly work was completed the ses light came on before I left the dealership's lot. Concern is safety related to running out of gas while on the road since the gauge mechanism isn't working.
My 2007 Nissan Quest fuel gauge indicator displays inaccurate fuel information and stalled and began to hesitate because the fuel tank was empty. I took my vehicle to the Nissan dealer,where it was diagnosed that the fuel gauge sending unit with fuel pump needed to be replaced. I contacted Nissan consumer report of the failure, and the vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure and current mileage is 93,000.
The 2007 Nissan Quest fuel guage will suddenly report empty and the service engine soon light comes on when the tank is known to be full. The fuel pump was replaced at a cost of $750. 00. Within a week the same problem occured. The fuel pump is being replaced again under a parts warranty.
Was exiting a highway and slowing to a stop. Traffic began to move so I pressed the gas pedal. The car hesitated then stalled. I was in center lane and had to cross another lane of traffic to get to the shoulder with no power steering and trying not to hit brakes so I didn't unintentionally block traffic. My gas gauge showed just over a quarter tank and the mileage showed 77 miles to empty. I was able to get 2 gallons of gas and it started right up. Went to fill it up at the nearest gas station and it took 19 gallons to fill. This is a 20. 1 gallon tank. This was the third such occurrence with the exact same scenario. I had it addressed previously at the dealership, but was told that there was no fault found. After this latest incident, I was told the fuel sending unit/fuel pump had to be replaced at a cost of appx $750 dollars! not happy!!!. . . Updated 04-10-14.
I have run out of gas twice in the last 8 months. Fuel gauge reads 3/8 tank left and the computer said I had 72 miles left until empty. No low fuel light indicator. Took it into a Nissan dealer for them to read the service engine light, they said needed a new fuel sensor which in turn you needed a new fuel pump which runs into lots of money. Bought the fuel pump and was going to have it changed. The reading from the new fuel pump was the same reading as the old fuel pump " no change. " I feel that Nissan doesn't understand the problems with their vehicles . They make you spend money that is unnecessary.
I've ran out of fuel about three times, the fuel gauge was reading 1/4 or more of fuel. About the third time driving around 30mph, my Quest ran out of fuel but again, it read a 1/4 full. This time the Quest become very hard to control to get out of the road. I called my mechanic, he sent a towing truck, and diagnosed the Quest with a bad fuel pump. He repaired costing me about $880. 00. He also mentioned that the pump went bad due to running out of fuel several times. Around November 2014, Nissan sent me a letter notifying about the fuel gauge malfunction and display and accurate fuel level reading. No crap, wonder why I was running out gas constantly and getting a bad fuel pump costing me $880. I called Nissan demanding a refund for replacing the fuel pump, after going back and forth they denied my claim. I think is time to start a class a lawsuit due to unnecessary fuel pump cost and near crash misses.
Fuel gauge system failure. Both the fuel gauge on the dash and electronic fuel gauge indicate no fuel. This problem is intermittent and causes the safety indicator light to go on. I had this checked at advanced auto. The fuel level gauge is broken. I was told that I would have to replace the whole fuel pump because the part is not sold separately. $350 just for the fuel pump. I was told that not fixing the fuel level gauge would lead to worse problems with the fuel pump. I have been dealing with this issue for a couple months now. I have failed safety inspection because the safety light is on.
Car stalled out on the highway, with the gas gauge showing slightly less than 1/4 tank remaining in the tank. Was able to coast to a stop within walking distance to gas station. Tank took a full 20 gallons (max capacity), after which the car ran fine. This occurred less than two weeks after having my fuel pump and injectors replaced. Nissan claims there is no connection between these incidents. Now I'm wondering if my original incident actual was a fuel pump, of if I simply ran out of fuel.
The vehicle's fuel gauge in the instrument cluster has become faulty and unreliable. On numerous occasions since July of 2013 the van has lost power and has come to a stop. On two occasions this has happened at a high rate of speed in fairly congested traffic with small children in the vehicle. The gas gauge in the instrument cluster reads that there is a quarter (1/4) tank of gas when in fact the vehicle has run out of gas which, at a high rate of speed, creates a very dangerous situation. According to online posts of other '07 Nissan Quest van owners, Nissan service centers appear to be unsure as to what is causing the problem let alone how to address the problem. This appears to be consistent with the experience I had at the local Nissan service center that diagnosed our vehicle last July which is the same dealership we purchased the van new in 2007. Upon diagnostics, the service center indicated that it may be the fuel level sending unit in the fuel pump assembly or a faulty fuel gauge in the instrument cluster, both or something in between the two parts. Upon contacting Nissan consumer affairs last July to discuss the problem with them and asking them to address the problem as part of their recall for this very same issue on the Quest as well as other models of their vehicles, they declined claiming that the v. I. N. For our particular vehicle had not been recalled. If they have recalled other '07 Quests or other vehicles in their lineup over this issue then Nissan should stand behind any vehicle that is experiencing similar problems. The issue needs to be resolved before someone gets seriously injured or even killed.
In April 2012 the Nissan Quest stopped in the middle of traffic - the Nissan dealership diagnosed that the fuel pump needed to be replaced along with the sensor - charged $694. 00. On July 8th the car stopped and the fuel gauge indicated a half a tank of gas. I put gas in the car but the gauge did not move. In researching this issue there was a recall on the 2007 Nissan Quest because of the fuel gauge. Nissan unwilling to repair vehicle. The first time this occurred it was very dangerous, vehicle stopped in the middle of a busy road - police had to be called to get my wife and daughter out of van until vehicle could be tolled. Nissan states my VIN # is not one of the recalled 2007 Nissan Quest vans. If you have a recall all vans should be covered and how do they get to pick and choose which ones.
I was driving on the interstate when I loss acceleration and had realized my car had shut off. I was towing a trailer behind me and had to try to make it to the edge of the road. I was unsure of why I first because my gas gauge showed I had a quarter of a tank. I got fuel put in it and then it worked. This year I had my engine light come on and showed a problem with the fuel sending unit. I took it too the garage and had to change the fuel pump and sending unit. After fixing the fuel pump, I drove for 300 miles and my gas gauge only moved a quarter of tank down, meaning my fuel gauge is still not working. No one seems to know how to fix this problem and is unsafe if you are on a highway and lose power to your car at highway speeds.
Problems with the fuel pump/system have occurred several times. On or about 1/6/2013, while driving 20 mph and coming to a light, the car turned off. The gauge showed 1/4 tank. The mechanic replaced the fuel pump and added 1 gallon of gas. Next day, the same thing happened as approaching a red light. Fuel level still at 1/4 tank. Mechanic added gas and the car started. Gas gauge is inaccurate and dangerous. In February 2013, on several occasions, after driving/parking the van, it would start and then turn off, start and then turn off. I was able to get it to run by giving it gas as soon as it started. On 3/13/2013, after driving the van and parking it, it would not start. It kept cranking, but nothing. Mechanic found electrical problem in the wiring and was able to fix it. On 3/28/2013, the car started and the fuel gauge dropped to empty with service engine light on. Van had a full tank of gas. Mechanic replaced the fuel pump and said there is an electrical problem with the fuel pump grounding. On a Nissan forum I discovered the following recall: "the recall affects 2005 - 2008 Nissan titan, armada and Infiniti qx56s as well as Nissan frontier pickups and pathfinder and xterra suvs produced between January and March 2006 and between October 2007 and January 2008. Due to a problem with a sensor inside the fuel tank, the gauges can show gas tanks a quarter full when they are in fact empty. " I think the Nissan Quest should also be recalled because this is a very serious and dangerous problem which is endemic to these cars.
The fuel pump makes a whining noise when vehicle is running from (mid-car) / (almost sounds like it's in the speakers) and you can smell gas bad - especially after a fill up.
