Fuel level sensor error which causes the check engine light to come on. After careful research this is known issue effecting thousands of nissans. The part becomes faulty after 40k miles and nissan is aware. The issue is so bad that the car can stop in the midle of the road because it thinks it ran out of gas.

While driving my wifes 2010 nissan rogue sl fwd is showed 62 miles left before empty on the fuel gauge. The car died on a winding back country road which is extremely dangerous if someone were to come over a blind hill and hit us. The car suddenly stopped running, I lost all power steering and power brakes. Got the car stopped and had to call the police to come out and flag down on-coming traffic that we were stopped ahead. The car would turn over but not start, acting as if it were out of gas even thought the fuel gauge said 60 miles to empty. Had to get a ride to get fuel and car started right up. This obviously shows that the fuel sending unit or gauge is not calibrated properly and caused a what could have been very dangerous or deadly situation. Apparently this is a known problem with nissan rogues as well as other models but no recall or tsb has been issued.

The fuel gauge does not register any change in the amount of fuel for the first 110 miles then registers a drop by one bar and then after a few miles returns to full. The fuel gauge then remains full until about 180 miles when it finally registers any loss, but not accurately.

The fuel gauge system is not accurate all the time it is I believe defective and nissan recalled on it, but when I took my car over they said it was not affected, although I had a problem a the time it wasn't this bad... This defective fuel gauge still shows a full tank of gas. This is very dangerous because people may well run out of gas on the road, imagine being out of fuel and stuck in the middle of nowhere.

After driving approx 200 miles, fuel gauge reads full for gas tank. Is not reducing the reading of the gas remaining to fill up accurately. There have been emails with this problem on this model since 2008, most recently a specific one had to be changed 3 times.

After I filled up, the fuel gauge continued to register as full even as I continued to use up the gas in the tank. I understand that this is a "usual" problem with nissans. I bought the car from carmax in december 2011, and it had approx. 13k miles on it. The problem did not appear until I had driven it for over 2k miles.

The electronic fuel gauge reading is incorrect as to the actual fuel level that exists in my 2010 nissan rogue 360 awd SUV. Because even after more than 250 miles logged on after the last fuel-up of my vehicle, this defective fuel gauge still shows a full tank of gas. This is very dangerous because people may well run out of gas on the road, imagine being out of fuel and stuck in the middle of nowhere. The fuel gauge used to work before, although it has never been very accurate but now it has stopped working altogether. Please help, thank you very much.

The nissan rogue gas gauge does not register gas usage correctly. The car can be driven 100 - 200 miles and gas gauge shows a full tank. The gas gauge is not consistently off by same quantity either, so actual gas in the car is not predictable. It fails to work correctly during any normal car usage. Problem was first noticed 1 month after purchase. Took to dealer and was told there was no issue in 9/2/10. On 11/18/10 my rogue ran out of gas in rush hour traffic when the gauge still showed 3 gallons of gas! Took car in again in 1/31/11 was told gas sending unit was faulty and had part replaced 3/26/11. On 5/13/11 gas gauge shows full after driving 130 miles and car takes 6.5 gal of gas. On 5/28/11 returned to dealer, they ordered another new sending unit and a new pump.

2010 nissan rouge 360 s awd gas gauge gauge does not move until at least 200 to 250 miles have been driven. Nissan has replaced the fuel sensors three times and the fuel pump once. The last visit to the dealer in january I was advised that new fuel sensors were being designed and replacement s would be available in about three weeks. After waiting six weeks I started lemon law process with bbb auto line. Nissan corporate call me and stated that they wanted the field service representative to check the car out. Which they did im mid march. They replaced the fuel sensors with the new design and said it should fix the problem the "nes fuel sensors" are not working. The gauge move one bar after 78 miles then moves two bars after after40 more miles and so on. I an always filling the tank after 250 miles because you cant tell what the fuel level is. The internet under "2010 nissan rouge gas gauge problems" lists many problems starting with the 2008 model year to and including the 2011.
