2007 Nissan Quest

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

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

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

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

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

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

WHILE DRIVING, THE CAR SUDDENLY LOSES POWER AND COMES TO A STOP. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE ENGINE I DECIDED TO CHECK THE MTE AND GAS GAUGE WHICH BOTH INDICATE THERE IS PLENTY OF GAS TO CONTINUE. I HAD THE BATTERY,ALTERNATOR AND STARTER CHECKED AND THEY WERE FINE. SO I DECIDED TO ADD MORE GAS THEN SHAZAM IT STARTED. PLEASE INFORM IF THERE'S A RECALL OR HOW TO REMEDY THE ISSUE. THANKS. *TR

BEGINNING IN FEBRUARY 2014 MY QUEST, OWNED FOR LESS THAN 6 MONTHS AT THAT DATE, RAN OUT OF FUEL WHEN GAUGE STILL READ 1/8 OF A TANK REMAINED. LOW FUEL LIGHT DID NOT COME ON, CAR SIMPLY STALLED OUT AND LEFT ME STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF A BUSY ROAD. THIS HAD SINCE HAPPENED FOUR MORE TIMES IN THE FOLLOWING FIVE MONTHS. ONE INCIDENT LEFT ME STRANDED ON A FREEWAY OFFRAMP FOR NEARLY AN HOUR WITH SEVERAL CLOSE CALLS. I FIND IT UNACCEPTABLE THAT A VEHICLE I PURCHASED FROM A DEALER, LESS THAN A YEAR AGO, IS THIS UNRELIABLE AND UNTRUSTWORTHY! I DON'T FEEL SAFE HAVING MY FAMILY IN THIS VEHICLE! *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN QUEST. THE CONTACT STATED THAT UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY STALLED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE READING INDICATED ADEQUATE FUEL LEVEL WHEN THE FUEL TANK WAS ACTUALLY EMPTY. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AFTER THE CONTACT FILLED THE FUEL TANK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM AND THEY INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE FAILURE WAS UNDER INVESTIGATION. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 105,000.
