| Description of the problem | The gas gauge has been an issue not reading properly and in fact the gauge may also show the steady amber light indicating there is no gas in the tank, when it is a full tank of gas. The steering column was found metal shavings from the nissan dealer. I had complained about the shaft having trouble. I was informed that it was a plastic pin that broke and there will be no effect on the steering. So i had brought it back after 4 years of dealing with loose steering wheel. Invoice 284857 from the valley hi nissan tag [xxx] was repaired 03 april 2015. I feel this should have been a recall since i found there are many complaints from midas mechanic. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6). |
