| Description of the problem | We bought our 2005 pathfinder used and upon getting a half of tank of gas our gas meter goes straight to empty if it's left idling for a short period. It won't return to full unless you fill the tank back up. It used to return to the correct position when we'd shut the car off then turn it back on but it's no longer doing that unless we fill the tank back up. It seems this is a common complain on this model and seems kind of dangerous. |
