We bought this car used. The fuel gauge does not work once it gets down to 1/4 of the tank left. I was driving my car on a city street when all of the sudden my car just turned off. Luckily I was able to slowly steer over to the side of the road. I had no idea what was going on because my fuel gauge said I still had 1/4 tank left of gas. This could've been far more dangerous if I would've run out of gas on a freeway or highway. There was a recall for this year and model for the fuel gauge inaccuracy, but when I called they said my VIN didn't match the recall.

The fuel gage gets to one quarter and it starts to be inaccurate and will run out of gas showing one quarter tank. The fuel gage will not work right until you have over three quarters in. I got so low on fuel the light was on three days ago. I put a few gallons in when I got to town it shower there was 1/8 of a tank by the time I got home it was showing a little over 1/4 were it was when it ran out of gas 1 1/2 years ago. The next morning I had to go to town and it showed I had almost half a tank by the time I got there. I've put about 7 gallons in it and the fuel gage is at the same place. When I filled the tank up the fuel gage started working probably. I've looked and there is a recall on the fuel sending unit on some nissan armada already but this one isn't on the list

Fuel reads at around 1/4 even when empty. Not knowing it needed fuel, the car ran out of gas, stranding the car in the middle of the street. Vehicle was going n motion at 35 MPH, vehicle was guided to less crowded side street and stalled. Vehicle was pushed to an open space.

The fuel gauge does not indicate actual fuel level. The fuel gauge stops around 1/4 tank ... And the tank could be empty.

The fuel shows that I have a quarter of a tank or a bit more left and the number mileage on the screen shows the same. My vehicle randomly stops without warning. This has happened 3 times. I had the vehicle repaired last year for the same reason and here I am again. I see there is a recall and my car was not included. I called nissan and the representative told me told contact the federal safety agency to be more effective.....he acknowledged the problem with the trucks. I feel as though it is a definite safety hazard. We were lucky this time. My air bag light will not shut off either and he mentioned this was another recall.. Why did this VIN miss the recalls. It clearly has those issues. They want me to go to a dealer and I cannot afford to do that. The dealers are more expensive. Hopefully there is assistance. There is a rattle with the A/C fan. I don't know what is going on with that however I have an odor from it as well. Again I am bringing it back to the mechanic however the tow company gave me the recall info and I don't understand how this truck was missed. Can you help with the recall for us. Recall #'s 10v51700,10v074000,10v349000. Our thanks
