2007 Nissan Quest Fuel System Problems

Check engine light came on and says fuel level sensor circuit a low

FUEL GAUGE SENSOR WAS BROUGHT IN FOR RECALL BUT ISSUE STILL EXISTS. DEALER CLAIMS I NEED TO PAY TO DETERMINE IF IT IS STILL THE SAME PROBLEM. DEALER ALSO CONFIRMED THEY DO NOT VERIFY THE RECALL WORK DONE WAS SUCCESSFUL. ALL THEY ARE REQUIRED TO DO IS "PUT IN THE NEW PARTS". WHEN I FILL THE TANK WITHIN 5 MINS. IT GOES BACK TO EMPTY ON THE GAS GAUGE. THE RECALL DID NOTHING TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

INACCURATE FUEL GAUGE. WHEN GAUGE SHOWS 1/4 TANK RAN OUT GAS.

THE FUEL METER DON'T SHOW THE FUEL MEASUREMENT.

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 GAUGE GOES FROM FULL TO EMPTY WHEN IT'S ALMOST FULL, NISSAN DID A FUEL SENDER CAMPAIGN REPAIR BUT IT DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM...THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I START THE CAR AND DRIVE JUST A MILE OR SO

MY VAN FIRST CUTS OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WHILE MY PREGNANT WIFE WAS DRIVING. EVEN THOUGH GAUGE INDICATES THAT THE FUEL WAS FULL. THEN IT CUTS OFF AGAIN AFTER THE SUPPOSED FIX BY THE DEALERSHIP. NISSAN HAD PREVIOUSLY ISSUED CAMPAIGN ID #: P5318 FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT AS ALL OTHER CUSTOMERS WOULD NOTE, THIS DOESN'T FIX THE PROBLEM EVEN AFTER TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. WE NEED NISSAN TO LOOK INTO THIS ASAP. TOOK IT TO THE FIRST DEALERSHIP WHERE IT SPEND TWO AND HALF WEEKS AND THEY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. THE SECOND DEALERSHIP NOW SAYS I NEED TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE COMPUTER AND REPROGRAM WHICH COSTS THOUSAND OF DOLLARS. THIS IS RIDICULOUS!

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. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYED THAT THE FUEL LEVEL WAS EMPTY AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE WOULD FLUCTUATE FROM FULL TO EMPTY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS REPAIRED THROUGH A MANUFACTURER'S SATISFACTION CAMPAIGN; HOWEVER, THE REMEDY FAILED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL PUMP FAILED AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 102,000.

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.

THE FUEL GAUGE MARKED 1/4 TANK FULL BUT WAS ACTUALLY EMPTY.

THIS IS PROBABLY THE 4TH TIME I HAVE STALLED OUT I LOOSE POWER STEERING WHEN CAR STALLS AND I WAS DRIVING IN A LOT OF TRAFFIC. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS ON THE FREE WAY. GAS GAUGE SHOWS I HAVE OVER A QUARTER OF A TANK THE DISTANCE TO EMPTY SHOWS THAT I HAVE ANY WHERE FROM 18-70 MILES LEFT AND I STALL OUT. AFTER PUTTING GAS IN THE TANK THE CAR FUNCTIONS AGAIN. THERE IS NO ILLUMINATED LIGHT, NO NOTIFICATION IN THE FORM OF A SOUND OR DING. I WATCH MY MILES BUT WHEN YOU VARY BETWEEN IN TOWN AND HIGHWAY MILES THEY ARE NOT ALWAYS THE SAME. I HAVE DRIVEN 400 MILES BEFORE NEEDING TO FILL UP AND 283 MILES ON THE ODOMETER WHEN TANK HAS EMPTIED AND STALLED OUT. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR 19 YEARS WITHOUT EVER RUNNING OUT OF GAS IN AT LEAST 14 OTHER VEHICLES, AND I HAVE RUN OUT 4 TIMES BECAUSE OF THIS FAULTY GAUGE IN THE NISSAN QUEST. VERY FRUSTRATING!!!

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.

TL* 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.

THE GAS GAUGE IS SAYING THAT THERE IS OVER A QUARTER OF A TANK AND THE VEHICLE RUNS OUT OF GAS. THIS WAS HAPPENING OCCASIONALLY. NOW, IT IS HAPPENING MORE AND MORE. NOW, I FEEL THAT I MUST FILL UP EVERY FEW DAYS SO I AM NOT LEFT STRANDED AGAIN. FIRST TIME, CLOSE TO HOME. SECOND TIME ON MY WAY TO WORK ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY (VERY SCARY). THIRD TIME, CLOSE TO HOME AGAIN. I WAS TOLD THAT A RECALL WAS TO HAPPEN OVER THE SUMMER OF 2015 BUT CAN NOT FIND ANY INFORMATION ABOUT IT.

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.

FUEL GAUGE, READ APPROXIMATELY 1/4 OF A TANK. CAR BEGAN TO SPUTTER AND BUCK, AS IF THE CAR WAS OUT OF GAS. NEARLY GOT INTO A MULTIPLE CAR ACCIDENT. LUCKILY ABLE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD AND GET CAR INTO A GAS STATION. PUT GAS IN THE CAR, RAN FINE, BUT GAS GAUGE IS STILL INNACCURATE

TL* 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.

SAME AS MOST OTHERS ON HERE, WE WERE DRIVING AND THE VEHICLE RAN OUT OF GAS. GAS GAUGE READ JUST OVER QUARTER OF A TANK, YET WAS ACTUALLY EMPTY. WE DO OUR BEST TO GET IT FILLED UP AT A HALF TANK, BUT THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED IN A YEAR AND A HALF. WE'VE GOTTEN TWO LETTERS FROM NISSAN INFORMING US OF THE ISSUE, BUT IT'S STARTING TO APPEAR AS THOUGH NOTHING IS GOING TO BE DONE TO FIX THIS SAFETY ISSUE. HOPEFULLY SOMEONE DOESN'T HAVE TO DIE TO GET THEM TO STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. OBVIOUSLY THERE'S A DEFECT.

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.
