Fuel/Propulsion System
My fuel gauge is not working properly, which has caused the check engine light to stay on constantly. When i fill up with fuel, the fuel gauge will sometimes move up to full, but only after a few starts of the engine. However, it will fall back down to empty after only driving a few miles or so.

After i filled up on 2/28/13, the gas gauge read empty and the check engine light came on. I looked up on line and this is a common problem with nissans of this mileage. The unit that controls this needs to be recalled. *tr

Gas gauge quit working, making possibility of being stranded on the road. After filling the tank, the gas gauge shows same as before, then after a while, the gas gauge shows empty with the fuel light on, then after a while it shows some gas in the tank (maybe a little over half), then a while later it goes up to almost full. This is a common problem with this model, nissan needs a recall to fix this! *tr

Service engine soon light was on when i started my truck that day and the fuel gauge was malfunctioning. After doing a search on the internet, it sounds like it may be the fuel sending unit or fuel pump which is a known issue with this model. Thanks. *tr

The fuel gauge indicated that the car had a quarter of a tank when the car stopped on the highway because it was out of fuel. Then the gauge indicated empty when i was able to refuel the car. This was a recall in the 2006 and 2008 models. Why is this not being recalled in the 2007 model. *tr

Gas gauge shows as empty even though it has a full tank. Service engine light is on. Was a recall in 2010 concerning this issue although nissan says it's not a campaign service. Was not notified about the recall even though it symptoms for the recall are exactly the issue i have. Have had the issue for over 7 years. Have contacted dealer and nissanusa and both deny the recall.
