NHTSA Complaint #10414774 — 2004 NISSAN 350Z

THE FUEL GAUGE IN MY 2004 NISSAN 350Z FLUCTUATES UP AND DOWN. IT HAPPENS AFTER FUELING, AND UPON DRIVING THE CAR. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO 2 DIFFERENT NISSAN SERVICE DEPTS. FOR REPAIR. THE FIRST TIME, THEY SAID IT WAS A FAULTY FUEL SENSOR, AND REPLACED IT. THEY SAID IT WAS FIXED, BUT WHEN I DROVE IT, THE GAUGE FLUCTUATED AGAIN. TOOK IT BACK, BUT THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT AND COULDN'T DO ANYTHING ELSE SINCE THERE WERE NO CODES COMING FROM THE COMPUTER. SO TOOK MY CAR TO A 2ND NISSAN SERV. DEPT AND THEY SAID THEY FIXED IT BY REPLACING THE OTHER FUEL SENSOR (SINCE THERE ARE 2), BUT STILL FAULTY. I DO NOT KNOW HOW MUCH GAS I HAVE IN MY TANK AT ANYTIME. IT IS MOST DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING AND THE FUEL TANK EMPTY WARNING LIGHT SUDDENLY COMES ON, AFTER THE GAUGE HAD JUST REFLECTED THAT THERE WAS PLENTY OF FUEL. *TT
