FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THIS IS FURTHER TO MY COMPLAINT ABOUT INCORRECT FUEL GAUGE READING AND RUNNING OUT OF GAS THREE TIMES WHEN BOTH THE FUEL GAUGE AND DIGITAL DISPLAY HAVE TOLD ME THAT I HAD BETWEEN 80 AND 130 MILES OF TRAVEL LEFT TO TRAVEL. LOW FUEL OR RESERVE LIGHT NEVER ILLUMINATED. MY SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON AND I CONNECTED MY CAR MD READER TO THE VEHICLE DATA CONNECTION AND RAN THE DIAGNOSTIC ON IT CAME BACK WITH THE FOLLOWING REPORT. I HOPE THIS WILL HELP, STORED CODES ARE CONDITIONS THAT YOUR VEHICLE REPORTED AFTER YOUR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS SET. CARMD USES THESE CODES TO ACCURATELY IDENTIFY A MOST LIKELY REPAIR OR "CURE". RETRIEVED DIAGNOSTIC CODE: P0462 TECHNICAL DEFINITION: FUEL LEVEL SENSOR A CIRCUIT LOW INPUT GENERIC DEFINITION: THIS FAULT CODE INDICATES THE COMPREHENSIVE COMPONENT MONITOR (CCM) HAS DETECTED A MALFUNCTION IN THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR CIRCUIT. THE SIGNAL FROM THE SENSOR WAS LOWER THAN THE MINIMUM EXPECTED VALUE FOR A PREDETERMINED PERIOD OF TIME FOR THE DRIVING CONDITIONS PRESENT WHEN THE CODE WAS SET. THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR MONITORS THE AMOUNT OF FUEL IN THE FUEL TANK. A FLOAT ARM ATTACHED TO A VARIABLE RESISTOR CHANGES POSITION AS THE FUEL LEVEL CHANGES. WHEN THE FUEL LEVEL IN THE TANK IS HIGH (THE FLOAT IS 'UP') THE RESISTANCE IS LOW; AS THE FUEL LEVEL DROPS (THE FLOAT MOVES 'DOWN'), RESISTANCE INCREASES. THE SIGNAL FROM THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR IS SUPPLIED TO THE VEHICLE'S FUEL GAUGE TO PROVIDE AN INDICATION OF THE AMOUNT OF FUEL IN THE FUEL TANK. ADDITIONAL RESOURCES IN SOME INSTANCES YOUR VEHICLE'S MANUFACTURER MAY ISSUE A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB) TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM. (?) ISSUED TSB? TSB NOT AVAILABLE MAYBE THIS WILL RESOLVE THE ISSUE NOW WITH THE SAFETY FACTOR AND FAULTY FUEL READING DUE TO COMPONENT PRODUCT FAILURE. TO ME THIS SEEMS THAT A THIS WILL BE $700 REPAIR BILL FOR A 25C PART. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I JUST PURCHASED MY 2007 NISSAN QUEST IN MAY AND AFTER A MONTH IT STARTED DYING ON ME AS I WAS DRIVING. IT WAS OUT OF GAS BUT SAID IT HAD PLENTY OF GAS IN IT. IT ISN'T CONSISTENT EITHER, I COULD HAVE THE GAS GAUGE AT 1/8 OF A TANK AND IT WOULD STILL BE RUNNING OR IT WOULD READ ABOVE 1/4 OF A TANK AND IT WOULD BE DEAD ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE DTE GAUGE SAYS I HAVE ANOTHER 60+ MILES TO GO WHEN IT DIES. I AM TIRED OF RUNNING OUT OF GAS BECAUSE MY GAS GAUGE DOESN'T WORK CORRECTLY. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE VEHICLE FUEL GAUGE AND TRIP METER BOTH SHOW THAT I HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY MORE FUEL THAN IS ACTUALLY THE CASE, CAUSING ME TO BE STRANDED BESIDE THE ROAD WITH NO GAS. THIS FAULT HAS CAUSED MY WIFE AND MY DAUGHTER WHO WAS A SMALL CHILD TO BE STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN PRECARIOUS SITUATIONS. I REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO NISSAN BUT THEY BLEW ME OFF. I TOLD THEM THAT SIMILAR VEHICLES HAD BEEN RECALLED BUT THEY SAID THAT MY VEHICLE WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE VEHICLES THAT WERE AFFECTED. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WAS DRIVING NEAR MY HOME WHEN THE VEHICLE ENGINE SIMPLY SHUT OFF AND STOPPED WORKING AND I HAD TO COAST TO A STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE STREET. FORTUNATELY I WAS AT LOW SPEED (ABOUT 25MPH) AND NOT IN A SITUATION WHERE THE HAZARD MIGHT HAVE BEEN HIGHER, SINCE THE POWER BRAKES ALSO SHUT OFF WITH THE MOTOR. I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT HAPPENED SINCE MY FUEL GAUGE WAS SHOWING A LITTLE OVER 1/4 TANK FULL AND THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON. AFTERWARDS I FIGURED THAT IT WAS PROBABLY LACK OF GAS, EVEN THOUGH THE INDICATOR STILL SHOWED OVER 1/4 TANK FULL, SO I WENT TO GET A SOME GAS AND PUT 5 GALLONS IN THE VEHICLE AND IT STARTED IMMEDIATELY, ON FIRST TRY. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHILE DRIVING OUR CAR SUDDENLY STALLED CAUSING OUR VAN TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. WE WERE ALMOST HIT TWICE WHILE SITTING THERE AS IT WAS A BUSY ROAD. THE GAS GAUGE SHOWED OVER A 1/4 OF A TANK AND THE DISPLAY FUEL ECONOMY SCREEN SAID 57 MILES REMAINING IN THE TANK, BUT THE TANK WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY. WE HAVE RAN OUT OF GAS TWICE BECAUSE OF THIS. THE GAUGE STOPS MOVING DOWN AT THE SAME SPOT EACH TIME AND THE DISPLAY SHOWED DIFFERENT MILES REMAINING BOTH TIMES (57 & 110 MILES). WE HAD THE FUEL PUMP REPLACED AS THIS WAS THE ONLY THING THE MECHANIC COULD THINK WAS WRONG WITH IT. NOT SAFE STALLING AND HAVING NO WHERE TO PULL OVER. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
WAS DRIVING VEHICLE AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH WHEN THE ENGINE SUDDENLY STALLED AND ALL POWER CONTROLS WERE LOST SUCH AS POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. CAR WAS CAREFULLY MANEUVERED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY. AFTER A THOROUGH INSPECTION IT WAS FOUND THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF FUEL HOWEVER THE FUEL GAUGE READ JUST LITTLE BELOW 1/4 OF A TANK. IT WAS BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION VIA THE INTERNET THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND I ALSO BELIEVE THAT THE SITUATION OF LOSING ALL FUNCTIONS OF THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT AND WAS A THREAT TO SAFETY. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER
THE CAR HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING FUEL GAUGE ISSUES - VERY SIMILAR TO PE14012 FOR THE PAST 6 MONTHS WHERE WE COULD NOT RELY ON THE GAUGE AND STARTED USING THE TRIP ODOMETER WHENEVER WE FILLED UP. NOW - THE VEHICLE DOESN'T WANT TO ACCEPT GASOLINE AND KEEPS SHUTTING OFF AT THE PUMP. I SEEMS LIKE THE PROBLEM IS COMPOUNDING NOW. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN I LOSS ACCELERATION AND HAD REALIZED MY CAR HAD SHUT OFF. I WAS TOWING A TRAILER BEHIND ME AND HAD TO TRY TO MAKE IT TO THE EDGE OF THE ROAD. I WAS UNSURE OF WHY I FIRST BECAUSE MY GAS GAUGE SHOWED I HAD A QUARTER OF A TANK. I GOT FUEL PUT IN IT AND THEN IT WORKED. THIS YEAR I HAD MY ENGINE LIGHT COME ON AND SHOWED A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL SENDING UNIT. I TOOK IT TOO THE GARAGE AND HAD TO CHANGE THE FUEL PUMP AND SENDING UNIT. AFTER FIXING THE FUEL PUMP, I DROVE FOR 300 MILES AND MY GAS GAUGE ONLY MOVED A QUARTER OF TANK DOWN, MEANING MY FUEL GAUGE IS STILL NOT WORKING. NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND IS UNSAFE IF YOU ARE ON A HIGHWAY AND LOSE POWER TO YOUR CAR AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I WAS DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 65 MPH WHEN MY VAN STARTED DECELERATING. I TRIED PRESSING ON THE GAS, BUT THE VAN WOULD NOT PICK UP SPEED. I PULLED OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND THE VAN ROLLED TO A STOP AND WOULD NOT START AGAIN. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS AND HAD IT TOWED TO A REPAIR FACILITY. THE PROBLEM WAS THAT I RAN OUT OF GAS EVEN THOUGH MY FUEL GAUGE SHOWED THAT I HAD ONE-QUARTER OF A TANK. I CHECKED ONLINE AND SEE THAT THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER COMPLAINTS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
MY WIFE WAS DRIVING HER CAR AND IT SAID SHE STILL HAD 1/4 A TANK OF GAS BUT AS SHE WAS DRIVING IT RAN OUT OF GAS EVEN THOUGHT IT WAS SHOWING THE TANK AS 1/4 FILLED. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE TOLD US WE NEEDED TO GET A NEW FUEL PUMP AND IT WOULD BE $700. THEY TOLD ME THEY HAD NEVER SEEN THIS PROBLEM BEFORE. I DON'T BELIEVE THEM AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR A NEW FUEL PUMP FOR AN OBVIOUS DEFECT. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
IT ALL STARTED WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I HAD THE CODE READ AND IT SAID THE PROBLEM WAS THE SENDING UNIT SO I FIND OUT YOU CAN'T JUST REPLACE THAT YOU NEED TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY. ALRIGHT SO I HAVE A NEW FUEL PUMP PUT IN AT AROUND $700.00 DOLLARS I HAD THE TECH RESET MY CODES SO THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS OFF. WHEN I GO TO PUT GAS IN IT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES BACK ON SAME CODE. SO BASICALLY I JUST SPENT 700.00 DOLLARS FOR NOTHING I TAKE IT BACK TO THE MECHANIC AND HE SAY I DON'T KNOW IT COULD BE ANYTHING. AFTER LOOKING INTO IT I'M FINDING OUT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE KIDS AND THIS IS MY DAILY DRIVER I DON'T USE MY FUEL GAUGE RIGHT NOW I JUST MAKE SURE I ALWAYS HAVE GAS. I DON'T THINK IT'S VERY SAFE KNOWING THERE ARE MANY NISSAN VANS OUT THERE WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. MY QUESTION IS WHEN IS NISSAN GOING TO TAKE RESPONSIBLY FOR THIS MECHANICAL PROBLEM. RECALL MY 2007 NISSAN QUEST AND FIX THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED! *TR

AFTER ABOUT 2 DAYS WITH OUT MY VEHICLE...THEY CALLED ME TO SAY EVERYTHING WAS GOOD ... IT DID THE SAME THING A FEW WEEK LATER..... AT THIS TIME I NOTICED THE THE STEERING WILL WAS GETTING STIFF SO I HAD IT CHECKED THE OIL AND YES IT WAS A LITTLE LOW.. SO I ADDED POWER STEERING FLUID... AS I WAS HEADED TO THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 55 MPH THE STEERING WHEEL WAS SO HARD TO TURN TO THE RIGHT OFF HIGHWAY LANE... SO I DECIDED TO TURN BACK TO TOWN..... I HEADED TO THE GAS STATION AS I PULLED UP TO A PUMP IT SOUNDED LIKE A BURST AND ALL THE OIL STARTED LEAKING... I DID HAVE THIS PART CHANGED AS THE DEALER AGAIN SAID THEY DID NOT FIX THIS PROBLEM...I HAD A MECHANIC CHANGE THE SO CALL PART..,, BUT MY MINIVAN HAS NOT CHANGED AT ALL THE POWER STEERING IS THE SAME ... HAVING DIFFICULT STEERING,,.,, ITS ALMOST MY 3RD YEAR IN MAY AND I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS...

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM FAILURE. BOTH THE FUEL GAUGE ON THE DASH AND ELECTRONIC FUEL GAUGE INDICATE NO FUEL. THIS PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT AND CAUSES THE SAFETY INDICATOR LIGHT TO GO ON. I HAD THIS CHECKED AT ADVANCED AUTO. THE FUEL LEVEL GAUGE IS BROKEN. I WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE FUEL PUMP BECAUSE THE PART IS NOT SOLD SEPARATELY. $350 JUST FOR THE FUEL PUMP. I WAS TOLD THAT NOT FIXING THE FUEL LEVEL GAUGE WOULD LEAD TO WORSE PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL PUMP. I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE FOR A COUPLE MONTHS NOW. I HAVE FAILED SAFETY INSPECTION BECAUSE THE SAFETY LIGHT IS ON. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
ON AUGUST 20, 2014 WHILE DRIVING BACK FROM VA TO MD ON I495, OUR 2007 NISSAN QUEST BEGAN TO STALLED AND THEN THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF COMPLETELY WHILE WE WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS HIGHWAY. LUCKILY, THERE WEREN'T MUCH TRAFFIC AND WE WERE ABLE TO PULLED OVER TO THE EMERGENCY LANE WITH THE VEHICLE'S MOMENTUM. WE ALSO NOTICE THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO STIFFEN UP WHERE IT WAS BECOMING DIFFICULT TO STEER. AT WHICH TIME, WE ALSO NOTICE THAT THE FUEL GAUGE HAD ABOUT 1/4 OF A TANK OF FUEL LEFT AND THE DISPLAY ON THE DASHBOARD HAD INDICATED 72 MILES LEFT BEFORE EMPTY. UPON COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP ON THE EMERGENCY LANE, WE TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR SEVERAL TIMES, BUT IT WOULDN'T START. AFTER A COUPLE OF TRIES, THE FUEL GAUGE SUDDENLY DROPPED TO E (EMPTY) AND THE DASHBOARD MONITOR DISPLAYED ALL STARS (*****) WHICH INDICATES EMPTY FUEL. AFTER WAITING FOR 1 HOUR, MY FRIEND CAME WITH HIS CAR AND WE WENT TO A GAS STATION AND BOUGHT A CONTAINER WITH 2 GALLON OF GAS WHICH WE PUT IT INTO THE OUR QUEST. AT WHICH TIME THE CAR STARTED NORMAL AND WE WERE ON OUR WAY. THIS WAS A VERY FRIGHTENING AND DANGEROUS EXPERIENCE FOR US. SINCE THE INCIDENT, THE FUEL GAUGE HAS BEEN ACTING UP AND GIVING US FALSE READINGS. JUST LAST WEEK WHEN WE FILLED UP OUR CAR, THE FUEL GAUGE WAS DISPLAYING EMPTY. *TR
