For the past year and intermittedly this suv has had a problem with the fuel level indicator that sometimes works and other times doesnt works. my wife was driving on the interstate and the guage was reporting that she had a 1/4 tank of fuel but was out of gas while she was driving in the high speed lane forcing her to make a drive across both lanes to get out of the way of traffic. i reported this to the dealer ship and they said there was no recall for this on this vehicle. i pointed out to hime that there was for the year before vehicle and the year after why there wasnt when the setup on this gauge is the same system with a spring loaded pump and level arm in the years in the recall" it the same dam system" that the recall calls out in 05,06 and 08 but not the 2007 ?who at ntsb didnt look at the same as part being the problem and a where used and should have forced the recall on the system and years used. we have since stopped driving the xterra but tell the gas level ...
Fuel gauge registering improperly. only shows 3/4 tank upon filling tank full and will not drop upon usage of fuel. gauge has only dropped once since i have owned the vehicle.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 nissan xterra. the contact stated that the fuel gauge did not indicate the correct level of fuel in the vehicle. when the fuel tank was filled, the gauge registered "empty". there was no warning indicator illuminated. the contact called south colorado springs nissan at 719-493-9586 (located at 1333 south academy blvd., colorado springs, co 80916) and was informed that there was no recall. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that the vin was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 10v075000 (fuel system, gasoline) because the vehicle was purchased from a broker and not a dealer. the manufacturer also stated that there was an extended warranty; however, the contact did not receive a warranty. the contact was informed by the representative that nissan did not make mistakes with recalls. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 75,000.
A couple of months back i reported this fuel level problem i believe in july, my wife was driving this xterra 2007 (we have two a 2005 and this 2007) she driving in the center lane on the i-30 interstate when the xterra just cut out, looking at the dash she said it has fuel about a 1/4 tank , she said she just made it to the shoulder of the safety lane when stopped. i went to her aide to find the check engine lite on and it wouldnt start, i took a two foot piece of two by four and wrapped the tank and it sounded like it was empty and whats funny the gauge inside now reads empty..got her gas and i drove it home. i report this to you guys and never heard a word back about this. in fact the complaint doesy show up in your listing explain that! i'im a mechanical engineer and done my fair share of failure analysis in my career and whats going on with this xterra is a heat related condition. 1. the pump is spring loaded to be able to keep contact with the tank to pickup ...
Tl* the contact owns a 2008 nissan xterra. while operating the vehicle, the fuel gauge displayed false readings. the gauge showed that the fuel tank had less fuel than what was actually present. also, on several occasions, the brake pedal traveled to the floorboard when it was depressed and the vehicle did not immediately stop. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, but no failures were found. later, while driving, the vehicle stalled after depressing the brake pedal. the manufacturer and dealer were not notified. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the failure mileage was 73,000.
Fuel gauge inaccuracy when full read 1/4 and check engine light was on. ntb10-031 march 18,2010 has a safety recall on this. the car is a 2006 but has low mileage and has been to the dealer since march 2010. my service manager at nissan of melbourne has no knowledge of it.
Car failed to start after being parked overnight. would crank but not start. had it diagnosed and the fuel sending unit replaced. the dead unit had a hole through it's plastic which showed a corroded electrical tab. it doesn't look like corrosion from a crack in the plastic as stated in campaign# 04v230000, but more like the electrical connection melted through the plastic, which then allowed corrosion. nissan hotline told me that the previous owner had the recall taken care of already, but couldn't say if the unit was repaired or replaced.
Fuel gauge goes to empty when full and check engine light comes on and unsure how much gas in tank almost had accident with my 3 children in car cause gas ran out. read on line about recall #ntb10-031a and 10v075000 and yet im told they dont have any re-calls for this frustrated please help me and my children thank you
I filled up my gas tank and it did not register to full it stayed on empty and the gas light came on and the service engine light. i looked this up and seen that there has been a recall on this exact problem for this make year and model with the fuel sendor.
