| Description of the problem | The range meter on the right side of the dash shows incorrect range. I understood when people would say it depends on how you drive, but no matter how i drive there is no possible way for me to get the range the car says i have. If it shows 55 miles i can be sure to get between 20 and 35 miles before being stranded. I contacted nissan for a warranty or service concern and they claimed it not to be a manufacturer defect. |
