About These NHTSA Complaints:
This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
I own a 2005 Nissan Pathfinder which has the same problem addressed in NHTSA campaign number 10V075000. The fuel sending unit shows the vehicle has gasoline when it is empty. This is a safety factor because "this could cause the vehicle to run out of gas and stall in traffic, increasing the risk of a crash." I have filed two complaints with Nissan North America and they refused to correct the defect.
