| Description of the problem | 2006 nissan pathfinder le gas gauge read 1/4 tank on my way to work with baby in car, ran out of gas when i thought i had 1/4 tank. Brought it to dealership they said they replaced the fuel level sensor. At a red light last night with 1/2 tank (according to gauge) all of the sudden gas low level light flashes and dte reads---- apparently dealership did not do what they said they did or problem lies elsewhere. There are thousands of other nissan owners with this same problem. There needs to be a recall issued plain and simple! |
