Description of the problem	The fuel level indicator does not work on my car. I have no way of knowing when my car is low on fuel other than to keep a running tab on how many miles i have driven since the last fill up of fuel. Recently i was driving and my car totally shut off in the middle of the street. I lost my power steering and could not pull over. Several cars almost ran directly into my rear as it happened so suddenly. I came to find out that the reason my car stopped was that i was out of gas and had no idea that my fuel was low (due to the fact that the fuel level indicator does not work). My husband has the exact same model vehicle as i do and the same thing happened to him. He had no idea that he was low on fuel and his car cut off in the middle of an extremely busy major atlanta expressway. He had to manually steer his vehicle off of the road and avoid being smashed into by other vehicles traveling at well over 65 mph. Since discovering this we both try to keep track of how many miles we've driven since filling up but we never know accurately how many miles we can get per fill up. I've been doing research and have found dozens upon dozens of people with the same problem with their nissan pathfinders. Even the repair facility we tried to take it to was aware of this problem as they have people with the same problem almost weekly. I fear that i could get into a serious accident due to the fact that i have no idea that i am low on fuel. I truly believe that a manufacturer recall is in order and the nissan corp is putting it's consumers in harms way by refusing to have this repaired free of charge.
