| Description of the problem | Teenage daughter ran out of gas at night while gauge registered nearly a full tank! She was under the impression that her father must have recently filled the tank, which obviously was not the case. The gauge registers full when it's not and empty when it's not! Received "code pewee fuel censor a too high" after researching, i see that this is, and has been, an issue with xterras! And for older generations there was a recall. However for this model we were not notified of any issue thereby putting my daughter at risk. |
