DEFECT #1 - FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER:STORAGE:FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM
Posted on: 2010-03-03DescriptionNissan is recalling certain model year 2005-2009 titan, armada, and infiniti qx56 vehicles. The instrument panel fuel gauge may inaccurately display that the vehicle still has some fuel, typically about one quarter tank, when the fuel tank is empty.
ConsequenceThis could cause the vehicle to run out of gas and stall on the highway, which could cause a crash.
Corrective ActionDealers will replace the fuel sender unit inside the fuel tank with a new improved sender card. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on march 22, 2010. Owners may contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261.
