Traveling along hwy 209 in bigfork, mt, i noticed my gas gauge needle drop from 1/2 tank to below zero and immediately the fuel light came on along with the check engine light. A mile down the road and the engine stalled and had to make an emergency pull-over with my two young children in the car. Thankfully, the traffic was light that day, i was able to pull over safely, and i had cell service. I called my husband…

My 2007 nissan frontier is experiencing what many other frontier truck owner are experiencing...the dreaded inaccurate fuel gauge readings along with the check engine light. I am blown away that nissan has not had the courage to order a recall on this well known issue. Hopefully this will not result in a number of fatalities before they "do the right thing". Very unfortunate and a poor form of customer service for…

Fuel/Propulsion System
Fuel gauge fails to register proper amount of fuel, triggers check engine light (mil) and reports trouble code showing open circuit in fuel sensor system. This failure requires me to watch mileage by using trip odometer to monitor when to purchase fuel. Could also cause failure of emissions test as check engine light is on. This would be an unnecessary financial burden to fix as well as having a failure of the…

I have been having the fuel gauge problems with my 2007 nissan frontier that i now see so many other people have complained about. It has been close to a year that i have had the issue but i knew it was the fuel level indicator sensor causing the check engine light to come so i didn't get it fixed. I would fill up with gas and the fuel gauge would stay at empty (no matter how much fuel was in the tank when i started…

Fuel level sensor malfunction, truck shut off while showing it was half full of gas. I was in the process of moving so i had a truck load of furniture and also pulling my boat. I luckily carry a heavy duty chain with me and was able to get someone to tow me to a gas station. I then read that nissan had recalled 2005-2008 models but when i called my particular truck wasn't one of them. It doesn't really make sense to…
